Home Surveillance Systems

Friday Sep 18, 2009

Home surveillance systems, once only for the rich, are becoming more and more affordable.  As technology progresses and hidden video surveillance becomes necessary, anyone can enjoy the feeling of security in knowing there is something always keeping an “eye” on things. 

Home surveillance systems come in many flavors.  There are your standard “overt” systems, meaning the cameras are visible in plain sight (usually one or several CCTV video cameras) , and there are “covert” systems with the home surveillance camera or cameras hidden in plain sight.

Home surveillance system prices range anywhere from $200 to thousands of dollars.  Thus, keep your security needs in mind when shopping around for a system.  

There are overt and covert systems available that are weatherproof for outdoor surveillance. Examples of an outdoor weatherproof overt system can be seen here.  Examples of all-weather covert systems include the HomeSpy, which doubles as a yard or driveway flood light or the SecureShot motion activated bird feeder camera, both of which have an onboard digital video recorder (DVR) and use secure digital (SD) cards as recording media.  The SD card can be easily removed and you can view the footage right on your computer using standard video software.

If your needs are geared more towards indoor surveillance, there are many decoy cameras that are functional items – iPod docking station, plant, teddy bear, air purifier, alarm clock, digital picture frame, wall clock, to name a few – with covert surveillance built-in (digital video recording via secure digital (SD) card).  Additionally, there are wired systems, as well as wireless (2.4 gHz) surveillance systems, available.

Home and/or Business surveillance and security systems ARE affordable!  Do yourself (and your family or business) a favor and install a home or business surveillance system.

Digital Spy Voice Recorders

Friday Aug 28, 2009

Have you ever been in a situation where you wish you had an audio recording of a conversation?  Have you ever been sitting in class wishing you could record your teacher or professor’s voice during a lecture? Now you can – even if you’re not allowed. There are several new covert digital spy voice recorders on the market. For this article, I’m going to discuss a few of my favorites. The USB flash drive digital spy voice recorder is a two-in-one flash drive and audio recording device. No matter your location, audio can be recorded clearly and discreetly. The 2GB model stores up to 40 hours of audio, and the unit can record up to 4 hours on a single charge. A must for any college student.

The 007 2GB Digital Voice Recorder Pen looks and functions just like an ordinary ballpoint pen, but has 2GB of storage for up to 80 hours of voice recording or up to 400 MP3 files – or a combination of both. It is perfect for recording interviews, meetings, personal notes, grocery lists, to do lists, or a personal diary…the applications are endless! For MP3 playback, simply plug in headphones. You can even store computer files on it like a flash drive as it becomes a separate drive on your computer when plugged into your computer’s USB port — Just drag and drop files.

The MP3/Voice Wrist Watch Digital Spy Voice Recorder is a very high quality fully functional men’s wrist watch with a built-in digital spy voice recorder/player. 256Mb flash memory records 9 full hours of voice via built-in microphone and/or dozens of MP3 music files. Ideal for recording notes on the go, dictation, or reminders. Listen to MP3 music files with included stereo earphones or on your computer using windows media player. Internal rechargeable battery records for 9 hours between charges. USB interface cable included for quick connection to your
computer. Ladies version also available.

My personal favorite is the PI Pen note taker. Not only a great writing ball point pen, but also a high quality, 7-hour digital digital audio recorder. Great for taking “in the field” notes both by writing and dictating. Also available with a USB 2.0 data transfer option with 7 hour and 14 hour versions.
