Many miniature
cameras are camouflaged as common everyday items like cameras.
Miniature spy cameras are devices set up to secretly monitor physical activity, voice communications or both. One of the first spy cameras was designed by Wright K. Gannett and made specifically for military purposes. The spy camera was designed to look like a cigarette. It operated by pushing down on a spring-loaded contraption to trigger the shutter and take a picture. Today, people and corporations use miniature spy cameras to do everything from monitor household workers, like babysitters, to track employee on-the-job behavior. Today, it is possible to detect miniature spy cameras using tell-tale signs.
Instructions
1. Look around your home, office or other location you suspect is bugged with a miniature camera and carefully make note of anything that looks different, including new items you've never purchased. This could be a teddy bear, camera, pen, watch or book. All of these are items that could hide a tiny spy camera particularly if they contain tiny holes or openings. Once you locate anything that looks out of place, disassemble it. And search for a tiny camera inside.
2. Turn off the lights, close the curtains and look for a red LED infrared light. Many miniature spy cameras use infrared LED light technology to record nighttime activities.
3. Inspect your car for a GPS tracking device. These tiny devices can be stored in a wheel well, bumper, by the car engine, under a car seat or inside of a car's storage box.
4. Use a bug detector to check for a spy camera emitting RF signals. Many spy cameras emit what is called radio frequency, much like a wireless mobile phone. A bug detector checks for any radio signal that a miniature spy camera transmits. A bug detector can be purchased online.
