Innovation and accessibility are driving the explosion of spycams, says Randy Andrews, a video security camera expert and the founder of Logan Security Consulting, which makes the popular Hidden Camera Detector app for the iPhone. “The technology has gotten much, much smaller,” says Andrews. “We’re talking about a micro camera lens the size of a pinhead.”
The smallest hidden camera Andrews has ever seen was embedded inside the cross of a Phillips-screw head. “To the naked eye, it just blends in and is not visible at all,” he says.
For many travelers, the most worrisome trend is the proliferation of hidden cameras in the United States. “In the beginning, these cameras came out of China and we saw them sold on Chinese websites like Alibaba. Now, of course, Amazon and eBay blatantly sell them,” says Andrews.
