The May Day holiday is coming. As an important part of travel, we all hope to enjoy safety and convenience during the journey. But it is unavoidable that some criminals may conduct illegal monitoring by installing pinhole cameras and other methods. On the surface, it's hard to tell. These small devices are disguised as everyday items, such as lighters, beverage cans, sockets, tissue boxes, body wash, etc. In addition, there are: alarm clocks, speakers, drinking fountains, air purifiers and other equipment that are directly facing the bed, especially the bathroom and toilet toiletries.
In the past, I would search "how to find the camera" through the Duoyu browser to get some tips for identifying the camera, which is more convenient for me.
Based on my long-term business trips and staying in hotels and accumulated experience, I would like to share some practical experience in finding cameras. It is simple and easy to operate. Friends who travel on May Day can collect them first.
[Mobile phone scanning method]
Turn off the lights in the room, close the curtains, keep the room in darkness, turn on the camera function of the mobile phone, point the camera at various places in the room and conduct an inquiry and detection. If there is a light spot on the screen, it may be the location of the pinhole camera .
P s: This method is only suitable for detecting cameras equipped with infrared fill light.
【Flashlight investigation method】
For ordinary cameras with holes, detect all possible holes in the room, such as vents, radiators, TVs, power sockets, etc., and illuminate these places with a flashlight. If reflective objects are found, it may be the location of the camera equipment .
[ Red light flashlight investigation method ]
In addition to the mobile phone scanning method and the flashlight screening method, the red light flashlight screening method can also be used. Since the appearance of the camera is a curved surface, the use of a red flashlight can produce obvious reflections on the camera equipment.
[ Network wifi detection ]
For some new cameras, you can use the sneak shot detection mobile phone software to detect the camera and detect whether there is a camera under Wi-Fi conditions. When the mobile phone is connected to the Wi-Fi in the hotel or room, it can detect whether there is a pinhole camera in the same Wi-Fi network environment.
Head position: After entering the hotel, first turn off the lights, draw the curtains, shine a red flashlight above the bed, and check the smoke detectors and air-conditioning holes on the roof.
Head height : stand by the bed and use a flashlight to illuminate a circle around the height of your head to check whether there is a hidden camera in this range.
Knee height: According to the height of the knee, do a circle inspection again to check for suspicious items.
If after such a careful inspection, everyone is still worried about their privacy, they can directly remove the room card, so that the charging in the entire room will be cut off. Cameras are generally difficult to operate without electricity. So everyone can sleep in peace.
After learning these methods, if you stay in a hotel in the future, you can follow the above methods, and you don’t have to worry about your privacy.
