Camera on helmet allows viewers to observe what quarterback sees
University of Washington business students Marc Barros and Jason
Green, each also avid skiers, needed an entry for an entrepreneurial
contest. Hey, they thought, why don¡¯t we figure out how to attach a
camera to a ski helmet and film our runs?The hands-free cameras have
been used largely by skiers, cyclists, hunters and similar outdoor
enthusiasts, but recently have begun to creep into widespread use in
team sports such as football, putting a whole new spotlight on the
company.
It was one of Contour¡¯s cameras that Washington coach Steve
Sarkisian affixed to his quarterbacks for the school¡¯s Spring Game
last April. A video of a couple of minutes of Keith Price wearing one
was linked by national web sites and has had roughly 35,000 views on
YouTube.Little known at the time was that Barros, the CEO of the
company, is a former soccer player at Issaquah High and Washington,
attending Washington from 2000 to 2003.
"Pretty exciting," said Barros of the publicity that has begun to
come to the company from the use of the cameras by UW,Call Box's latest
training course offers tips and tricks for users of the GoPro HD Hero dv mini camera
with a focus on post-production using Apple¡¯s Macs and OS X.Los
Angeles,a provider of interactive training for digital media
professionals, has released its latest training course worldwide. as
well as Notre Dame and by NFL QBs Michael Vick and Peyton Manning, and
receiver Wes Welker during a Pro Bowl practice."For so long everyone
has said, ¡¯Gosh, I wish I could see what the quarterback sees. What
that experience is like,¡¯" said Sarkisian, a college QB at Brigham
Young and later in the Canadian Football League. "And it¡¯Ricoh and
Hoya announced today (PDF) that Ricoh is acquiring the Pentax spy hidden camera
business from Hoya in a bid to expand into the consumer digital camera
market. Although Ricoh was a early player in the digial camera market
and continues to make high-end compact cameras.s the closest I¡¯ve seen
to the reality of what a quarterback is truly seeing.we're pretty happy
using the WiFi Baby 3G as a wireless digital baby video monitor.
In fact, in our experience, only Luvion's brand of premium video baby
monitors can hold a candela to the Y-cam in terms of convenience and
interference-free image quality under a variety of lighting
conditions."
