Very cool.  And the device their selling doesn't look half bad.

Their webpage, on the other hand, could use some work.  Selling a device that is so technical and having such a poor website doesn't exactly inspire confidence for the consumer.

Yeah, it looks great.  I've been meaning to build one of these or buy one for a long time.  Got screwed over in an accident because I was 18.

I may use raspberry pi and connect two cameras to it with a large sd card and wire it to my +12v.  Somehow wire it to my fuse box to get a 'turn on record' feature.  Would be a neat project.

I feel ya there.  It was heavily snowing out, slush everywhere.  Idiot decides to cut me off.  People in front of him slam on their brakes.  He goes into them, I go into him.  If I had that,  I would have sued him for fraud.

I should have.  The guy was 70-ish. So the cop automagically sided with him vs. the 18 year old.  The cop never asked me for my side of the story.

But now that's it's happened, I know what to look out for and how to handle it appropriately next time around.

Nifty! I have to say, I would choose Bitcoin over Paypal/CC for convenience any day.


I may use raspberry pi and connect two cameras to it with a large sd card and wire it to my +12v.  Somehow wire it to my fuse box to get a 'turn on record' feature.  Would be a neat project.

Good idea, but the Pi doesn't have nearly enough power. I was disappointed at how frustratingly slow the Pi was for any graphics-related operations (including running a simple GUI/X-server). Maybe if you love reading datasheets you can figure out how to leverage the built-in graphics accelerators (there aren't many), but even then it would be a major stretch. Plus, the I/O speed to the SD card is rather limited.

Cool, but $300?  I'll pass.  Just get a $35 808 #16 cam instead.

The only reason to limit the block size is to subsidize non-Bitcoin currencies

If only those had a remote turn on/record feature, they'd be perfect Tongue

But doesn't look easy.  The poster should setup shop.  I'd pay double to have it automatically turn on/record with power.  I've found a few dash cams on Amazon for $60 that probably use the same parts, but are too large & obvious because they have IR lights & LCDs.  Just asking to have your car broken into.  No one would think twice about a tiny key chain remote on my dash.

A rear-ender is ALWAYS the fault of the person who did the rear-ending, no matter your age or ethnicity.  I've never heard a cop side with someone who did the rear-ending.
