Flip goes off-mission, releases lumpen Flip SlideHD
Posted on April 13, 2010 | No Comments
Remember when Flip was all about video cameras in your pocket? Well those days are gone thanks to the lumpen, misshaped SlideHD. The new model has a landscape screen that "slides" up so I can put the device on the table and rock out with my sad-eyed friends to some video of us guys sitting around playing Russian Roulette with an empty gun at my last house party. According to current reports it's much to large to fit comfortably in your pocket but you can put it in your iPad Man Bag, when and if you buy one.

USB 3.0 adoption could be slowed because of lack of demand
Posted on April 7, 2010 | No CommentsWilling to spend $300+ on a fancy motherboard just so you can get USB 3.0 support? Yeah, that might not be such a good idea, if only because Intel is in no hurry to integrate the spec into its chipsets. That means companies have to go out of their way to offer USB 3.0 on their systems. The odds of seeing USB 3.0 on a cheap-o netbook, then, are pretty much non-existent.

Twin Video: pocket camera for the narcissist
Posted on January 22, 2010 | No Comments
Ion Audio's latest creation in a rather unique take on the pocket camcorder. The Twin Video has two cameras in it, allowing you to record not just what you are seeing, but what your reaction is to what you are seeing. I don't really see the point behind having two cameras built in the device, other than for the "2 girls one cup" style reaction shots.

Robocops to roam the streets of San Jose
Posted on December 23, 2009 | No Comments
According to the Mercury News, cops in San Jose will soon be wearing head-mounted video cameras to record their interaction with civilians. The devices will sit above their ears and they will be activated whenever they speak with a citizen or suspect. The videos will then be uploaded to a central server. Presumably these things turn off when the officers are in the toilet.
Why is this happening? Because people don't trust cops right now. The system, called AXON, can also attach to other parts of the body.

Review: Archerfish Mobile Video Intelligence System
Posted on July 17, 2009 | No Comments
I've used a number of video surveillance systems for a variety of purposes. In my experience, most of them are merely adequate. I've used Axis and Pelco solutions for different things, and have been fairly underwhelmed with both. It's a laborious, manual process to search through recordings to find stuff, and the interface for the various applications is pretty lame. As such, I was pretty excited to review the Archerfish "mobile video intelligence system."
