Re: Special equipment for a private detective
Spy technology at the service of a private detective.
A modern detective can use in his arsenal a wide variety of hidden devices that were not available just a few years ago.
The size of such devices is often extremely small and invisible to a curious look, in addition, elements for shooting and recording can be built into extremely unexpected objects, such as mp3 players, pens of various styles, replicas of classic-style watches (male and female), standard furnishings in the apartment, and even sunglasses. All this at times increases the possibility for the detective to go unnoticed while in the immediate vicinity of the object, or, conversely, in a peculiar way to "overcome" the distance separating from the object.
At the same time, the materials obtained with the help of built-in miniature microphones and cameras amaze the imagination with their quality: the future has already come, now spy gadgets are not just entertainment for children who decide to play a detective agency or a secret secret organization. As a rule, each mobile gadget can simultaneously record video with sound, the quality of which will not differ from the video from a cell phone of the average hand, and take photos. Moreover, the level of images, as a rule, is about 2-3 times higher than the video level of this particular gadget model. Nevertheless, both of them fully correspond to the class of digital technologies that we are all used to at the moment.
Detective agents in a business environment
In fact, of course, not only business, but also all formal meetings, the detective’s presence at any event “with ties” fit into this category. In this case, bugs and hidden cameras built into elements designed to emphasize the official style of the costume are extremely popular: ties, hairpins for ties and other jewelry, popular wrist watches of a restrained, strict style, fake models of fountain and ball pens of famous brands, cigarette cases, lighters and etc., etc. As a rule, the control buttons for such things are either at hand if gadgets are usually kept in hands during use (pens, watches, lighters), or are located on a separate miniature control panel, which is easy fits in a pocket and is invisible in it (for ties). Maximum usability - an invariable rule for these types of spy technologies.
Lost in the crowd
In order to eavesdrop on someone's conversation on the opposite side of the park, now you do not need to drive in a van with a huge plate on the roof. It will be enough to use the so-called "bionic ear." The device is so compact in size that it even fits in a fairly spacious lady’s handbag, and, being with him in the car or behind a tree, you can definitely go unnoticed.
Another device is sunglasses. Moreover, some sets for glasses include fully transparent lenses, as well as an integrated night vision system. As a rule, these are sports or ultra modern models. In the sports version, it’s not difficult to hide the complete set: camera, camera, voice recorder. In more inconspicuous models, as a rule, there is only a camera, but at the same time the glasses are actually not much different from ordinary sun glasses. The mp3 player is no less convenient - their youth is used to constantly twist in their hands and it will never arouse suspicion; or an imitation of a flash drive on a chain, they are now also quite popular with all ages.
Another option for street surveillance is car key chains, because people who get out of the car for a while to buy water or cigarettes often carry keys in their hands, playing with the keychain, and thus will not attract attention to themselves. The keychain is one of the most successful versions of the spy gadget, because it is voluminous enough to fit all the necessary devices, and at the same time not give out its dual purpose.
A great opportunity to get clear and high-quality images is a cap with an audio-video camera, and by now several different styles and colors are already available.
Home surveillance
The range of devices for home surveillance is even wider, because household items give a lot of opportunities to stuff them with a wide variety of bugs, and observation and recording devices. When choosing technical devices of this type, you need to pay attention to the viewing angle, the depth of perception of the camera and microphone.
The most popular in this area are watches: wall-mounted, those that put on the shelf, alarm clocks. Among the numbers and divisions, the point of the camera is extremely difficult to notice, even if you look closely at the dial. In addition, the most common models of inexpensive watches that can be found in almost every home are unlikely to attract anyone's unwanted attention. The detective will supply his client with a similar device, and he will install or hang a new clock in the right room - then in the evening it is enough to download data from the memory card and clear it for future use. In the line of models there are even children's watches, made, for example, in the form of a tire or with various bright patterns - they will help to find out not only what the child does, but also what happens to him in his room at a certain time of day, which, how sadly, sometimes it is quite a relevant issue.
The second most popular element is the imitation of a fire alarm in the rooms. In third place are cameras in toy / decorative figures and soft toys.
Despite all the new-fashioned gadgets wound up, every detective agency always uses the most classic listening devices and more serious equipment in their work - no one canceled them either, besides these things cannot be replaced with anything if you need long-term observation and / or impossibility to get close close to the subject: then bugs and hidden cameras are installed in advance. Just now the bugs have become smaller, their radius of action and the quality of the recording is higher.
