As cameras continue to get miniaturised, its almost as if the day when everything that you say and do will be recorded is already here. Take this one for instance, its smaller than a ping pong ball in size but it contains a complete video recording system - camera, memory et. al. It operates on a battery which is sufficient to let it run for upto 6 hours (2 GB SD card ) and its smart enough to get activated only when there is motion.

The motion detection system can remain on standby for 48 hours prior to requiring a change of battery.

Admitted that the resolution isnt anything to write about - its just 320 x 240 pixels ; but then we know how technology behaves and how quickly it can play catch up. It shouldnt be long before we have a megapixel spy cam with a longer standby on the shelves. Spyville as usual claims it to be the worlds smallest spy camera system.
