If James Bond is somewhat of a role model for you and you dream of becoming a skilled spy, then there's just the perfect gadget to help you with that, namely the Spyball spy camera from WowWee, introduced on the market at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show.

WowWee, an Optimal Group company, is a leading designer, developer, marketer and distributor of innovative hi-tech consumer robotic and entertainment products. What's special about WowWee though is the fact that its robots are always funny and cute, plus incredibly practical.

 

There are a lot of spy gadgets out there, but probably there's none to match the cuteness of the Spyball.

This remote controlled spy cam is Wi-Fi enabled, affordable, easy to use and rechargeable, and, of, course, as already mentioned, it sports a vibrating cute factor.

 

The Spyball spy cam captures video and still images equipped with sleek wheels for fast, smooth mobility and 360-degree turns. The reason why it's very convenient to use the Spyball is the fact that it disguises perfectly, transforming from ball to camera and back again. This way, you can spy on anyone you want, be they siblings or not, and inspect all sorts of places, without anyone knowing it.

 

Comfortably enough, there is no need to access the Internet to see what the Spyball spy cam sees – users can make an Ad hoc connection via any Wi-Fi-enabled device, including a PC, laptop, video game console or even a cell phone. The included USB cable allows users to configure a simple home network setup process that will make the Spyball spy cam controllable from any remote location via the Internet.

 

Unfortunately, the triumphant introduction of the Spyball on the market wasn't followed by any disclosure regarding price or availability. For this sort of info, you might want to contact the manufacturer directly.
