How to Use a Snake Camera
A snake camera is a small, compact camera that resembles a long tube and as sleek and slim in the same way a real
snake is. The flexible, but rigid neck can turn or bend to help you see into tight places. Snake cameras are great for
hard-to-reach areas, such as a drain. However, they are also great for organizations like police, SWAT teams,
military and firemen. With a snake camera, you can look at otherwise impossible to view areas, such as:
Under doors
Around corners
In air vents
In pipes
In ducts
Over large obstacles
In small, compact spaces
For example, police detectives can use a snake camera to watch illegal activity in a house. First, a detective finds a
tiny area where the camera can fit. Second, switch the camera on. Third, the detective should insert the snake
camera in the small hole. Rotate the camera as much as needed to reach slide it through the small area. Because
the camera is located at the top of the snake camera, it's easy to make sure the detective can see when it reaches
its destination. Next, rotate the camera to find the best view to see the illegal activity. Lastly, decided where to
take pictures or store video. Typically, snake cameras can store about 200 pictures. Also, it can store about 20
minutes of video.
Some snake cameras also have a portable hand monitor. This allows one person to view what the snake camera
records while another is operating the snake camera. Generally, snake cameras come with rechargeable batteries.
Therefore, you don't have to spend money on new batteries.
Overall, a snake camera is affordable, portable and useful for government agencies to catch criminals. Many
people use snake cameras whether they are trying to spy on a cheating spouse or on a plumber trying to fix a
clogged drain. However, the snake camera is so small and portable that they offer law enforcement a chance to
use the cameras to catch criminals and gain an upper hand in dangerous situations as well.
