The camera glasses’ comfortable, modern frame and advanced recording capabilities make them the perfect body worn surveillance solution.
When conducting video surveillance on-the-move the ideal spy tool is something that can be completely discreetly worn on the person and can operate ‘hands-free’. To achieve this, the camera system needs to be incorporated into an everyday item. This is where the Spy Glasses Camera system scores very highly; not only is the hidden camera practically undetectable, but it will also always be pointed in the direction the wearer is looking, capturing the best footage completely under-the-radar.

Can these be fitted with prescription lenses instead of the standard clear lenses?
It is not something that we recommend, only because the frame may crack during the process. It would be advisable to get a professional opinion from an independent opticians. Alternatively if the user can wear contact lenses, the original clear lenses would not be an issue.
Has the device got motion detection facility?
No, this unit can only be activated manually using touch sensitive control panel located in the left spectacle arm.
Can the Spy Glasses Camera record just audio?
No, these are designed specifically for video (with audio). If you want a pure audio recording device then please see our Voice Recorders section.
How do I know if the subject that I am recording is in view?
The camera lens used, although only a pinhole, has a very wide angle lens (80º), which means that simply facing the subject will enable you to capture within the frame.
Can I swap the battery over when one runs out?
No, unfortunately the battery is completely concealed within the left glasses arm and cannot be removed or changed over.
Is the footage taken by the camera good enough to identify somebody?
Absolutely, the imagery is clear and easily good enough to identify somebody when they are near to the camera when the footage was obtained. This is high definition footage.
I have seen cameras before claiming to be HD. Is this for real or just upscaled lower quality imagery?
The video footage is not upscaled on this device. The video on this unit plays back in clear 1080 HD format.
