Spy Review – Looking back at June
This is a review of some of the best articles that appears on Spy Review in June. Take a look to see if you missed anything exciting!
One of the stories in June was a report on using spy cameras to catch fly tippers. Spy cameras aren’t just for watching cheating husbands or housewives!
If you think you might have a covert GPS tracker installed on your vehicle, or you’re just paranoid, then a GPS tracker jammer might interest you. The small gadget transmits on the same frequency as the GPS receiver, and therefore stops it communicating with the satellites. If it can’t communicate, it can’t track you!
For the ultimate in cool and covert spy cameras, then the camera tucked away in a pen would suit you. It’s completely wireless and uses tiny coin cell batteries to transmit the video signal to a nearby transmitter. At £300, its not cheap, but it certainly is a cool piece of kit.
Something that’s recently hit the market are these seriously tiny digital voice recorders. Pretty much the size of a standard keyfob, it has a surprisingly large memory for storing conversations. And they’re pretty cheap too!
On the tiny theme, there’s also this surprisingly small GSM transmitter, which exploits the existing mobile phone networks to allow you to call it from anywhere in the world. It’s only 39mm by 40mm by 9mm, and includes VOX activation and SMS notifications. Very impressive for a tiny gadget.
We’ll end with my favourite gadget from June, the spy camera hidden inside a TV. This camera is remote controlled too, and will allow you to record anything that goes on in front of the TV. There is definitely an irony about a TV doing the filming!
