Shoppers at the Roosevelt Field mall have some interesting ideas about where they'd like to see us place our new helmet cams! A helmet camera, otherwise known as a micro-video camera, bullet camera, or lipstick camera, is a camera that can be attached to a helmet, allowing the helmet-wearer to record their adventures hands-free and get a whole new point-of-view. But we're not just putting them on helmets. We're sticking these handy cameras everywhere! Readers from all over the island have given their creative ideas. Listen to some here . . .
