Or you could load that thing into a high powered air cannon… that might be kinda cool.

Yeah, you pretty much asked all of the questions I had. It’s probably more of a gimick.

To really have any real use you’d have to be able to control them. What would be really cool would be a video that is on a remote controled airplane.

Ok, so according to their site, you either throw it and wherever it hits / bounces off of it snaps a picture at the moment of impact, or you set a timer and throw it – as is indicated in the photo here.

Here’s my question -
How do you control, in a throwing motion, where the lens in going to be positioned. I mean what are the odds your lens is going to be perfectly positioned to catch the seagull’s face in mid-flight when you toss it?

From a website design perspective, I’m really diggin’ how they handled the media downloads. That is really intelligent design.
