hausdok Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 For those of you who like new tech toys, this might just be the ultimate new gizmo - a mini LED projector that's the size of a cell phone that can be set up anywhere in minutes and can project a 50-inch image. Hmmm, Now, if it were possible to wear a cigarette video camera while inspecting, and stream those images to a laptop coupled to one of these, the clients could sit down in the house and relax while they watched you work. They could see the roof, the attic, and everything that you see.
caryseidner Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I've seen a wearable HD video camera that straps to your head. I don't think it can stream yet, but once it can the clients wouldn't even have to be sitting in the house. They could be anywhere as long as they had internet access. I bet we'll see this happening in the next few years.
kurt Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Who was it that was predicting MonkeyCams a few years back.....(?)...... I might have to buy that little toy; very cool.
dcmeagle Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Check out qik.com . It install on most cell phones and creates a live feed of what your phone camera can see to qik.com. It is also saved so people can watch it later. I've used it a few times at conferences, the quality isn't too bad. You just would have to find a good way to strap it to your head I've been tempted to pick up this projector: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6824219064 . I hadn't seen the 3M. Now I need to find a comparison on the two! Thanks!
hausdok Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 Well, The reviewer for that device said don't buy, wait for the 3M. The reviews at the 3M site are mixed but mostly complimentary. OT - OF!!! M.
kurt Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Damn you guys......I've got the fever now.......
randynavarro Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 I agree, Kurt. I come here for professional advice, maybe some enjoyment, and to learn. These constant tempations from the O are feeding my addictive personality. This is quickly becoming an unhealthy place to hang. . .

Navarro from his alternative call list for when he's too booked...
