CeBIT Video Coverage

Posted by timothy on from the commitment-worth-commitment dept.

Charbax writes "I walked around CeBIT 2005 for two days with a headmounted colour camera connected to a harddrive Mpeg-4 recorder in the pocket (the Archos Pma430) and an external microphone. The result is hours of CeBIT video coverage . - check for some Siemens set-top-box, Intel high-tech car, KiSS-Technology 1080p DivX Video-on Demand-players, Chinese and Taiwanese Pmps, WiFi SIP phones, a remote-controlled Linux-running Canadian airplane. And more videos to be added tomorrow. All videos are on BitTorrents."

    I walked around CeBIT 2005 for two days with a headmounted colour camera connected to a harddrive Mpeg-4 recorder in the pocket (the Archos Pma430) and an external microphone. In other words: I duct-taped a digital camcorder to my head!

      I don't know.

      There seems to be plenty of women desperate to get on camera. Most of the time, their clothes mysteriously fall off at the same time.

    ...CeBit is about the only public gathering in the world where you can wonder around with a head mounted video camera and get away with it.

  12. Chineese Pmps (not another pimp comment) by mobby_6kl · · Score: 1, Funny

    Very fun Chineese companies talk about their Pmps, and make fun of my Archos.

    I'm sorry, but it's not the Archos they were making fun of ;)
