Default Another gizmo you can't shoot without

A video cam in a bullet, I guess there is at least one born every minute. Only 99.99US for 10 rounds. To watch a few milliseconds of bullet travel. I can hardly wait for the threads, where it didn't perform, because it didn't transmit the pics of critter guts on its way thru.

Pretty cool.

I have my doubts on the slow motion capability though. My guess is that everything will be so blurry slowing the image down does nothing to help to see where the bullet went.

Early April fools? How do they stabilize the image so it isn't a million rpm?

After you buy them PM me, I've got a rattlin' bog for sale in Newfoundland that is crawling with unicorns and centaurs, no tags required.

One born every minute alright!

It's amazing how they managed to get 360 frame per second optical rotating image stabilization technology into something so small!!

Very hard to believe this is possible. Oh wait... it isn't.

I'd say its possible. Likely not great resolution though and they are going to be alot more than $10/shot.

It's amazing that the camera doesn't spin with the bullet...

Just so you know, they said they encased the camera in liquid so it didn't rotate with the bullet.
