Stealth camera detection device

Experts from Moscow's Bauman National Technical School say they have researched the creation of a magical device, capable of detecting stealth cameras.

The idea of ​​making a camera detector was born soon after the scandal with Mr. Skuratov. The video that smeared this Russian official was probably not practical, but in principle there could be such a thief. Researchers decided to build devices to prevent theft from becoming popular, because according to them, everyone has the right to a private life. Only science can protect that right.

The team leader, Professor Valeri Karasik, initially explained that they built a similar device to detect the optical viewfinder of sniper rifles. At any viewfinder, there is a sheet at the focal point of the lens, for example, the image acquisition plate. If there is a laser beam that the naked eye cannot see, a light reflection effect appears. Where the rifle's viewfinder is aimed at, it will flash like a bright spot on the detector's screen.

It looks like a digital camera. The device tested in the laboratory, where it is planned to have an important meeting, has already been installed 3 stealth cameras. The task of the machine is to check and detect all walls, cabinets, ceilings where people can hide secret 'windows' , only in millimeters, in the most unexpected places, for example, in the tie of the interlocutor, in the chandelier, the vase .

The device quickly found 1 of 3 stealth cameras . Scientists hid it in a box of chocolates. The laser 'camera' identifies a small hole in the box - the detector screen flashes into a bright white spot. The tracking is done primarily from that point! 15 minutes after the second camera was also detected - it was hidden among the devices on the table. The third 'invisible eye' is definitely not present. People direct the laser straight into the speaker (maybe the camera is in his tie), but still don't see it. Only when a female employee suddenly enters the laboratory and seems to fall into the focus of the lens by accident, on the detector screen is there a flash of light immediately. The camera is hidden inside a button of this female employee's shirt.

Many representatives of special agencies visited Bauman's wonderful technical field to order. Russia's inspection agency expressed strong support. The Moscow government is also interested in this invention, the city's Science and Technology Commission has spent money on making prototype devices.

Initially, construction officials wanted to produce a series of products for hotels in the future, but the agencies protested vehemently, because they themselves were maintaining a large number of children. bugs' and cameras sneak. Only law enforcement agencies and private villa owners are really interested in new products.
