A convenient (but expensive ) safe way to take pictures - helmet mounted camera

Wheels of Happiness

                        That is the very expensive helmet mounted camera to the right of his helmet

Rizal Philippines |  January 26 2014

This is the second time we saw somebody with a helmet mounted camera.  This time this is Boyeth from the Taytay cyclists.  A lot followed him but unfortunately, the battery was dead.  Hahaha.  Always charge your batteries.

That is the problem with these cameras:  they are very expensive  (say $500.00)  P20t plus and drains battery fast.

The last time it was Rolf, an ROV pilot at Singapore who is from Paranaque. I never saw him again?  He was with Edgar.


                                   If I can copy the mount?!

Wheels of Happiness

Morong, Rizal, Philippines  |  December 8,  2013

             Sigmond wears a Nat Geo t shirt and look at the expensive camera on his helmet; at Morong, Simples Lugawan

Today is the Feast of Immaculate Concepcion

Edgar introduced us to Sigmond del Villar, who said he is from Merville, Paranaque City.  He reached Morong via C6.  His helmet comes equipped with a $400.00 latest camera that can be operated remotely from the handle bar.  Wow.  He bought his camera from Singapore.  Helmet camera link

He works in Singapore as ROV pilot (the equivalent of drones under the sea)  Their company services oil platform and he is on call from the Philippines by his employer in Singapore.

We thank Sigmond for considering as worthy biking companions  ( This blog apologizes to Sigmond for earlier errors in his name publishing)

This is what Sigmund does? Manipulate the arms and work underwater remotely?
