First Things First....

Perhaps like you, I first saw this SLS camera used on Ghost Adventures. It was a device made by Bill Chapel. Not being "game" savvy, I did not recognize the device that was being used as something I could build on my own. After all, I'm no Bill Chapel!

 

But after some time and lots of research, I am now able to "hack" these amazing cameras together for a fraction of the price of an SLS by Digital Dowsing. 

 

But Does It Work?

I can't express how blown away I was with this camera when I was testing it out for the first few sessions. Within no time, I had captured a small entity perched on my shoulders and responding to my vocal requests. Later, a figure no more than 3 feet tall stood on my right side and proceeded to hold my hand on request.

 

Needless to say, I must harbor many beings within the confines of my work area because of the work I do on a daily basis. The down side is that I hadn't yet installed the recording software and so no video of my experiences exists.

 

This camera will detect human shapes in absolute darkness or full light. It also seems to see bodies when there is nothing there the naked eye can see. (Spirits?)  You can record video directly to the tablet and save to an SD card.

 

The sensor runs off of a rechargeable battery pack for up to 4 hours of continuous use (depending on settings). 

Here's how it works: It uses an RGB camera with depth sensor and infrared light projector with a monochrome CMOS sensor which sees everything not as a flat image, but as dots arranged in a 3D environment. These 1000's of infrared dots allow the camera to "see" depth and detail like a sonar.

 

The installed software can recognize people by distinguishing body parts, joints and movements. 

If shows a person shaped object on the screen that you cannot see with the naked eye then there is something there the IR is detecting and the programing is recognized as a human shape based on body parts and joints together.

Mobile SLS Camera Unit:
10" Tablet or Fusion 5 (Deluxe) Windows 10 Tablet
12V rechargeable power supply (powers Sensor/camera)
Handgrip

Easy Initial Assembly
Programs Installed

Tripod or Monopod Mount Recommended

Your Kinect Cam will come with a grip/handle. Although a mobile device, I have found that using with a sturdy tripod or monopod works best for me to monitor a room. Experiment!

Record

Your unit is installed with a Screen Capture software in order for you to document  your SLS Cam sessions. This includes sound as well as the Kinect imaging.

 

PLEASE NOTE: Using the screen recording software will greatly reduce your tablet's battery life. It should only be used when activity is seen. Otherwise, I strongly recommend using a separate camcorder to record activity captured by your SLS camera.

 

 

PLEASE NOTE:

The Kinect Sensors used to make these cameras are no longer in production. The Sensor you will receive is either used or remanufactured and will show varying signs of previous use.

 

The internal components are in perfect working order and have been tested.
