Exclamation Security Cameras in the car?

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows if security cameras could be installed in a car (mini cameras) ?

Any help would be great.

Sure thing .... its no big deal. Both the cameras and the storage system already exists. You have the choice of analog or ethernet.

Any current design of ethernet camera is possible. You have to most likely remove the plastic shell. You then get the camera to FTP its images to a storage server of some type. The cheapest is this one

It already has a user account for a camera built into the firmware. All you need then is a 80Gb laptop drive with shock mountings and you can store about a months worth of footage.
