Don't want red-light cameras snapping photos of your license plates?
Here's an idea: Don't run red lights. But for those seeking an extra
level of precaution, a new device promises a simple technological
solution. It's called noPhoto, and it senses and responds to the bright
flash of a traffic camera with a flash of its own, shrouding your plate
number in white light at the moment the camera takes its picture.
NoPhoto is designed to be triggered only by red-light cameras, which
seems like a key feature.The underwater digital camera
features the large 3.2 inch LCD touchscreen on the rear. Canon has
added just a playback button on the rear. It would be a little
embarrassing if it went off in response to, say, the flashing lights of a
police cruiser.
Creator Jonathan Dandrow, a self-described tinkerer with a love of cars and photography, is raising money for the project on the crowdfunding site indiegogo, where he had pulled in more than $18,000 as of Tuesday morning. He plans to sell the devices for about $350 each, or about the price of one red-light ticket in many jurisdictions."I believe that traffic enforcement cameras are dangerous, invasive, error-prone, and unconstitutional," Dandrow writes in his pitch on indiegogo. "So I decided to do something about it."No doubt red-light cameras are controversial, and some people feel that they amount to invasions of privacy. Whether that distinction would hold up in traffic court,That is why many students are choosing to use China cell phones services to help them keep in touch with friends and family back home.
(Courts have generally not agreed, noting that there's no expectation of privacy on public roads.) But is noPhoto itself legal? Obscuring your license plates is against the law in most states, but Dandrow maintains that noPhoto skirts those statutes because it doesn't physically cover the numbers.Connectivity options such as mini HDMI and mini USB are at the side of the toilet hidden camera.The 100mAh battery and memory card slot are located underneath the camera and the battery flap is made of hard plastic. it's hard to say. But the frames do appear unobtrusive enough that they'd likely escape notice, at least until police start to catch on to what they look like.
