I don’t have any children but from what I’ve heard, they’re quite a nuisance. If you have kids that are just starting to drive a car, why not purchase this dash-mounted camera with built-in GPS logger and Google Earth compatibility? You’ll be able to playback video of recent trips complete with a nice little GPS overlay on the right-hand side of the screen. Aside from keeping the driver of your car honest, you can also capture the A-hole that just cut you off, the other A-hole that just slammed into you, or the third A-hole that’s doing 45 on the highway while talking on his BlackBerry.
You can either manually record certain aspects of your trip or the camera will automatically start recording when it detects “sudden acceleration, braking, and sharp turns, as well as back and forth, right and left and up and down vibrations.” Video is recorded onto SD cards for easy playback. The whole getup costs $450 – looks pretty cool if you need a system like this. Full specs after the jump…
