The Advancement Of Camera Glasses
If you have watched a realistic variety of spy movies, you should be quite knowledgeable about how spies work with wireless spy cams. Some would have a camera at the tip of a pen. Others would have it on their watches that would record while the spy is putting on an act to check time. Spy cams have even been affixed to small trained animals that would record for you. All these circumstances with spy cams may seen too elegant or too unreal for most of us. While that maybe true, the fact is that some people actually use spy cameras especially those whose jobs would require them to check out or setup some type of surveillance. An even better thing is that you can own spy cameras yourself. Just make certain to avoid doing illegal things using it to prevent you from landing in trouble.
Camera glasses are devices of spy movies. The only thing more disturbing than the fact that they're used in daily life is the likelihood that there is a sufficient demand for them internationally. Instead of being reserved for some backwoods survivalist cult, a quick Google search will bring up any several physical and web-based outlets where anyone in practically any country can acquire a set of camera glasses. These camera glasses can set you back anywhere from around US$ 50 for the school boy spy-on-the-girls-in-gym-class variety to 1000s of dollars for the hidden, top secret, high-grade, special forces military specification edition that makes you feel you've had computers implanted in your cornea. A pair of camera glasses like these may be the nearest thing you can get to being either a T-1000 Terminator or an MI6 agent.
Now more than fiction camera glasses do occupy an interesting place in the evolution of gadgets and widgets, from fantasy fiction and Maxwell Smart's "shoe-phone" to real-life, not-to-leave-home-without essential undercover agent equipment. In many ways, camera glasses hold a similar position worldwide of modern day popular culture as video conferencing, remote satellite surveillance imaging, video telephones and the now smartphones. No greater than 20 years ago camera glasses were considered as nothing greater than adolescent toys.
The very first time I happened upon the concept of a videophone conference was in a Disney comic circa the 1980s. Daisy and Donald were making plans via Uncle Gyro's new "fandangled crackpot invention" - a TV screen with a small camera built into the top casing connected to a telephone. Today, I can speak to my editor via the webcam/microphone contraption built into the top of my computer screen. I recollect the back pages of the same comic showcasing advertisements for zit-makers, switchblade combs, sea monkeys, x-ray specs, and of course, some form of practical joke camera glasses.
Camera glasses may have been fiction once, but they're not the fantasy of books and comics any more. In fact, these camera glasses evolved a great deal over the years you can now find them in any color and style. Many of the camera glasses on the market at present would look more at home on an Olympic speed skater or a gold medal-winning sailboard rider.
