Swann HD PenCam and PenCam 4GB does discreet video surveillance

These days, many of us carry at least one video recording device – the smartphone, and whether we use that or not is another matter altogether, as different smartphones have varying hardware crammed inside that will affect the output quality. As for the tablet, the same principle applies, and holding a tablet is far more unwieldy compared to having a smartphone nestled in your palm comfortably. Well, either way, they are not exactly the most discreet method of getting things done, which is why Swann came up with the HD PenCam and PenCam 4GB.

Yes sir, these two devices conceal a miniature video camera and DVR within what looks like, and works like an actual pen. Yes sir, this means you can still get your John Hancock down when the situation calls for it, and also capture a recording of your married colleague flirting with the office secretary as a form of blackmail, so much so that he has to bring you donuts and coffee every morning to keep his dirty secret safe. Let us take a look at what the HD PenCam and PenCam 4GB are able to offer in closer detail right after the jump.

SocialShield – They Know What You Dont.

 

I worry about my daughters Internet use. Obviously, I spend a lot of time on the computer myself, and I feel as though I have taught her well, but lets face it, if you put an 8 year old up against an adult, well lets just say most of the time the adult is going to have the upper hand. I dont want her to feel as though I am treating her like a baby. I just want her to be safe.

Enter SocialShield, a leading cloud-based social network monitoring service. SocialShield gives parents affordable and easy to use tools that help them provide Internet safety for their children in their online environment. SocialShield technology warns parents of any questionable activity on their child’s social network accounts so they can feel comfortable about who their children are interacting with online, what photos and conversations are being posted, and where their children have profiles and because SocialShield works specifically based on ”exception reporting” technology, children can still use these networks with a feeling of privacy and independence.

The Immobilizer Phone – Don’t Take That Call!

You know the feeling of leaving a store late at night, and walking out into a dark parking lot? While you don’t actually believe that anything is going to happen, you breathe just a little faster knowing that it could. I know I always like to hold my keys in between my fingers thinking I could hurt someone with them, but holding 5 million volt stun gun that looks like a cell phone, well, that could give me an almost unfair advantage over a would be attacker!

Lorex Home Video Monitoring System with Skype

I have reported on Lorex’s products before, like that Baby Monitor a while back. I was impressed with the ease of their technology, and it is imitated and taken a step further with the Lorex Home Video Monitoring System (LW2020/LW2030 Series).

This Live Connect allows the user to connect a wireless Gateway device to their home network and plug in the camera it comes with. When the handheld monitor is turned on, the user has the camera’s image, instantly!

That is good for when you need a baby monitor or secret surveillance camera, but what makes this really neat is that the camera can be connected to Skype. This means that the user can monitor their camera from any Skype-connected PC, Mac computer, and it also works on the iPhone 3GS/4, iPad, and iPad 2.

SpyNet Laser Trip Wire

We’ve seen a couple of devices from the SpyNet range before, and obviously this one is more of a defensive alarm than anything else. The name of the $39.99 SpyNet Laser Trip Wire gives the game away, where this trip wire will let you re-enact scenes from various films that offer nail biting moments, including Catherine Zeta Jones’ fine derriere snaking herself through a maze of trip wires in the movie ‘Entrapment’. The SpyNet Laser Trip Wire set will compries of a quartet of devices to make up your very own defensive office security system, and no longer will people be able to “borrow” your stationery on a permanent basis.

Each Laser Unit sends out a class 1 laser, and when connected to the Receiver Unit which holds the alarm as well, a beam of light will be created. Should the light beam (or shall we say ‘laser’ for a more serious effect) be disturbed or crossed in any way, the alarm will go off.

Smart-i Wireless Spy Camera

With the advancement and miniaturization in electronics these days, you can never quite tell just which device is a spy camera, or at least, comes with some sort of surveillance mechanism within to watch your every move in an unsuspecting manner. I would suppose jealous spouses who wonder what’s going on with their other half who started to dress up sharper than ever before, splashing a dash of cologne or perfume before going out, will find such spy devices to be helpful in behavorial monitoring. Well, you can add the £79.99 Smart-i Wireless Spy Camera to the arsenal now – as this is touted to be the smallest Wi-Fi camera in the world.

Just how small is it? Well, it won’t be bigger than your average walnut, and yet crams in enough technological wizardry to shoot video at 640 x 480 (VGA) resolution, while ensuring all of that data will be streamed directly to a PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad or Android-powered device. All you need to prepare beforehand is get the free Smart-i app and you’re good to go. All footage can be saved on the device itself, so you need not stash an additional SD memory card with you.

Each full charge of the Smart-i Wireless Spy Camera will enable it to shoot up to 2 hour straight, and it has a decent visual of up to a 100 meters outdoors with fair lighting conditions. Just make sure the place where you’re staying at won’t dip below -10°C or go beyond 50°C in its temperature reading, otherwise the Smart-i Wireless Spy Camera will start to act up. Hmmm, maybe that extreme temperature is why your “target” is acting all wonky in the first place?
