Pet's Eye Camera

This is another of those ideas that is good in concept but poorly executed.

The concept: A little camera attached to your doggies collars that takes pictures regularly so you see what he has been up to (or gotten into).

The reality: water-resistant (so the first time the doggies jumps in the lake it dies), only takes pictures at most once a minute, resolution of just 640x480, and storage capacity of only 35 pictures.

Here's how I would do it: 4 or 5 megapixel cellphone camera in a waterproof metal container, that saves pictures to a wifi enabled SD card for automatic transfer to my home web server so I can log on from anywhere and see what the dog is getting up to.
