Build in a high quality camera and design them so it is not readily obvious that they are 'Google specs' and paparazzi, policemen, sports photographers, spys, me and many, many others will buy them like hotcakes.
Easily film whatever you happen to be looking at, upload the footage in near real time, broker/sell it to whoever might want it (news agencies, tabloids, corporation, etc) again - in near real time. This idea has been around since at least 1992 (See Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson.) Been seen in countless films and is perfectly sensible, rational, viable and about time. Question: is it common for articles here to troll so shamelessly? Of course people will buy these. Sheesh. |
