Always-on Camera
I want my always-on camera, my black box flight recorder.
The technology is available to inexpensively produce a small device that records audio and video all day on it’s own battery power. This would be a boon to holding people accountable for what they say and do.
The device would have just 1 button on it. The user would push this button and speak to make a voice-note of a notable event that just happened. Once a day, the user plugs it in to charge and upload the last 24 hours of audio & video recording.
Imagine having this device the next time…
- you are in a car accident
- someone gives you directions to an address
- you are assaulted
- you are in a he-said/she-said discussion
- …
It’s really a very simple device. Now if someone would just manufacture it. And that someone could be you!
And that someone could be you!
It could be – but why couldn’t it be you?
Alas, there is only so much time in a day…
