wearable camera

Body-mounted video device

A wearable camera is a small recording device designed to be worn on the body—typically clipped to clothing, mounted on a helmet, or strapped to the chest or head.

Police body cameras document encounters with the public.

Action cameras like GoPros capture sports and adventures from the participant's perspective.
