A Device for Recording Illicit Actions Surreptitiously [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.', 'Backgroundurl Avatar_Large', 'Nickname', 'Joined', 'Created_At', 'Story Count', 'N_Stories', 'Comment Count', 'N_Comments', 'Popular Tags'] Date: 2023-01-06 A small mirror mounted over the selfie camera enables photography while gazing down at the cell phone. Needed: A simple, 3D-printable mount for a mirror for the selfie camera of a cell phone. Such a camera would enable surreptitiously recording illicit police action or other events. The problem with photographing such actions is the the perpetrators will see you recording them. This simple device would reduce the likelihood of that. You’d be innocently viewing your cell phone. Ideally, the mount would allow recording to the front or to either side. I’ll leave it to the creativity of those who’ve mastered 3D printing to work out details. The mirror itself would need be only maybe 3/4” square, and could be cut from a cheap plastic mirror of the sort commonly available these days. If the G-code for such a mount and instructions for installing the mirror were put in the public domain, we might soon have more videos that do not end in the videographer’s arrest.
