Are You Looking to Buy a Pet Collar Cam?

I’m sitting here showing Wicket the slideshow of images that were gathered from the digital camera that hangs off of his collar. He didn’t seem to be too interested in watching, until he saw pictures of his new rawhide bone. We were checking out pictures taken with Pixie’s new Pet’s Eye View Digital Camera.

Set the timer to record a shot every 1, 5, or 15 minutes and the Pet’s Eye View Digital Camera is good to go. At the end of the day, you can download the shots to your computer and see what your pet did all day. The camera is plug-and-play, so there’s no software to load. Features include:

  • 1, 5, 15 minute interval timer
  • PC and Mac compatible - true plug-and-play
  • 8mb SDRAM internal memory (not expandable)
  • Resolution: 640 x 480
  • Image capacity: 40 (jpeg)

The battery in the camera charges via USB, and allows you about 1-2 hours of usage out of each charge. The worst thing is that the camera doesn’t come with any instructions - and there aren’t any on the website, either! Sadly, there’s also a proprietary USB cable needed to charge, instead of being able to use a mini-USB.

It is easy to use, for sure. It’s also interesting to see exactly what it is that your pets are up to when you aren’t at home. Are you sure they are just lying around, anxiously awaiting your return?

It seems to be a good Idea but if it has problems in low light then it isn’t eight for me and my pet. If it had some way to stream live back to a source it would be awesome but untill then I guess we are stuck with this.

I received one for Christmas and tried it out. My dog is an excellent photographer, so excellent I decided to upload the best shots to my Flickr. :D

Alas, I had a good run with it, when my cat had her go with it, she must of done something wrong, because now my PC can’t recognize it at all. :|

Hey Chris. This Looks AWESOME. This + the iPhone app iCam can give me direct view from my dog on a mobile device! I really like this product and may try this out. Thanks for the info, and all hail ThinkGeek!

I’d be curious to put one of these on an outdoor cat and see what trouble they get into all day long.

What Do You Think?
