Podo Wireless Camera

     There's a number of ways you can go about taking a selfie, such as using your smartpone and attatching it to a selfie stick. This is where Pode comes in. It is a small wireless camera that can be slapped on any surface and controlled remotely with your smartphone.
     The square camera measures 2 x 2 x 1 in and weighs only 1.8 oz, designed to be slipped into a pocket or backpack for easy carrying. On its backside is a micro-suction pad that according to its developers, allows it to be stuck to basically any solid surface. This backing is joined to the camera body with a hinge which allows the lens angle to be adjusted to make sure nobody's head is chopped from frame. The camera pairs with iOS and Android devices over Bluetooth and is controlled through a companion app. Users can choose from photo mode which includes the ability to take single snaps, double exposure and burst sequences, and also video mode which records 15-second clips, optimized for sharing via Instagram.
     Podo comes with 4 GB of storage and runs on 600 mAh battery, with the company claiming this to be good for up to two hours of video. Available in red and blue, early pledges of $79 will put you in line for one.
