CBL expands outside of the house with cool new tech
Hi all, just wanted to let you all know of some way cool tech we have recently launched for out site collegeboyslive.com. As you know our house is already stae of the art with over 34 cameras and 10 audio mics, but we wanted to be able to follow the boys when they are outside of the house. to this end we have designed 2 more cam systems.
1: The car cam with audio and gps locating:

The system is totally automatic, coming on when the car is started and staying on for 30 mins after the car is shut off. while the cam is active it is automatically announced at intervals in the chat room so that everyone .
Members can hear the audio form the car thanks to 4 hidden mics located throughout the cabin. the Camera is hidden within the cabin and isnt visible to the occupants.
The system has 2 gps recivers transmitting gps data back to our servers which is then overlayed on a satellite map with roads overlayed in real time. enhancing the members enjoyment of watching where we go.
When we get out of the car we have the backpack cam. this is similar to the car system but totally portable in a lightweight backpack there is a hidden camera and mic in the strap of the backpack and a special micro computer system and super long life battery keeps this puppy broadcasting for upto 12 hours without a charge, just like the car system there is a gps receiver in the backpack showing the location the the site.
The system is currently in the final stages of beta testing and will be rolled out to the feed sites this week.
