Hey #VortexNation - after much deliberation over the weekend, we've decided that the Bullet-Cam is a source of incredible power, that can be wielded safely by no one man or woman. Please check out this video for more info. We've got "Top Men" working on it now.... April FOOLS! ua-cam.com/video/8cyBJMaKorM/v-deo.html
kaasglenneman that could be corrected with software. however, getting high speed recording, transmitter, etc that small and shock resistant, not possible.
I'm actually relieved that this is a joke. Otherwise I'd be explaining to my wife why I spent $100 to get 10 nearly identical videos of a disembodied cameras flying past an unscathed target and straight into the dirt.
JustinHuman haha we need to go shooting! I'll teach you a couple things to make it hit!.. first thing is always dope! If you dont know what that is look up military snipers doping! Youll understand soon! Lol
Something like this is bound to be created at some point, tbh I don't think that day is far away. It may even be possible today if someone with the expertise and proper funding and dedication sat out to accomplish it. Very little is impossible, you "just" gotta know how.
The real problem is the acceleration. You might be able to make one for a very long barrelled slow pressure release airgun, but no way for a powerful rifle. We are talking around 12,000 G's. Good luck making a camera survive that. Someone asked this on Quora, and had a simple yet straightforward way of researching an answer to that, which is using barrel length vs velocity charts. www.quora.com/When-a-gun-is-fired-how-much-G-force-does-the-bullet-experience-It-seems-like-a-5-56mm-bullet-made-of-soft-lead-would-want-to-deform-when-going-from-zero-to-3-100-feet-per-second-almost-immediately?share=1 I did another quick calculation, for a .45 ACP this time and got 19,000 G's, so the rifles would be more likely to be survivable for a camera.
+Christian Walker right? How about put that money into quality control instead of their marketing department and replacing everyone's scope they decided to be dumb with.
almost got me, because A:This was a suggested video and B: I'm watching in July. As soon as he showed the HD footage slowed down I knew this was not possible. Good video tho 😎
Don't you all know that the camera is on super small bearings so when the bullet spins coming out of the barrel it stays stable so you can see it!!! LOL 😂😂😂
@@RANDOMSTUFF-nt5xp that it's fake. A camera small enough to fit within a bullet, it can not only record in perfect hd but at over 20,000 frames per second, with built in auto-spin correction, it streams all this directly to your phone before getting destroyed on impact AND it's under 10 bucks? Impossible.
It takes a lot to amaze and fool me , This did both! I honestly believe this and was going to ask if they used some sort of rotation stabilizing software to counter bullet rotation but found out they used gullibility software to fool me instead! Wow I was going to actually buy a box and try them out ROFL! NICE ONE you got me!
I was fooled for the first 30 seconds or so until I saw the footage and thought "wait... How do they record in such high quality.... And at that high of framerate? In that small a package? And then transmit it to your phone before it is destroyed?!?!!"
Picked up the bullets at Cabella's at 6:00 a.m. opening on April 1. Work as advertised, but each broke on impact. Does your lifetime warranty still apply? (BTW, this-is-genius-at-work type stuff...the gyroscopic stability of the camera derived from the spin, ingenius. And the simultaneous four-band cell transmission of data, wow. Great stuff.
It may be an April fools... but it's an incredible idea, of course there are two major challenges: 1. Data would need to be in constant stream with the hand-held device which would require some seriously powerful transmitters in a seriously small space. 2. The explosive force behind the bullet would likely wreck any electronics, maybe that can be shielded in the future too. Good work on the video guys, very entertaining!
Really, M4 Carbine with a twist rate of 1 in 7 inches (177.8 mm) and a muzzle velocity of 3,050 feet per second (930 m/s) will give the bullet a spin of 930 m/s / 0.1778 m = 5.2 kHz (314,000 rpm). High-speed cameras shot at 250 FPS = 1,500 frames per minute. So for every frame, the bullet will spin roughly 210 times. Good luck with that.
austin1574 you can look at www.geek.com/geek-pick/phantom-flex-high-speed-camera-captures-a-bullet-at-10000fps-1513431/ and watch the spinning bullet on a high speed camera, spins fully in about 100 frames. Good luck with that too. And it's nowhere near 314,000 RPM. You are comparing theory to practice and like Einstein said, that is a loser's move
Vortex Optics lots of folks are saying April fool's already and upon looking at every date in the video, I'm starting to agree. I really hope this is not a joke and I, as a Vortex customer willing to spend money, don't find it funny.
+Kelson Blount - First off, we certainly appreciate your business, and meant no harm in this video. We try to not take ourselves too seriously here around the office, so we like to have fun like this once in a while. That being said, we've got lots of cool projects in the works around here! -RJ
MrChris52091 No, "they" don't. Give it another five years and this will be possible though. As a .50 cal or 12 bore, you could do it today, but it is pointless without a steering mechanism.
This is no longer a joke, but a real thing. I don't know if links get blocked but you can search for this text: "Princeton Infrared Technologies, Inc. will develop a small, low power, lightweight, uncooled *640x512* on 8 μm pixel pitch *SWIR* seeker for the precise engagement of targets during daytime, nighttime, and poor environmental conditions. This camera will enable the user to image and track laser designators and pointers deployed on the battlefield.". A different webpage says: "We have shown that InGaAs SWIR imagers survive the 20,000g gun shock. We will be manufactured a small 300 frame per second needed to meet the imaging needs of the user to track targets while inside small gun launched projectile.". Yet another webpage, for a different product, says: "The 640x512 10um pitch SWIR imaging system (detection from 0.7-1.7um) will provide unique capabilities for the kill vehicle. Functionality of the imager includes the ability to track the target with and without targeting lasers using a very high frame rate imager with region of interest that allow >6,000 frames/second to remove motion blur from the fast moving projectile.". Time for you to make a real camera, they've had theirs for a few years.
This is awesome -- perfect, even. Really I can see it as a toy, because I would assume that practical training usage would be pretty expensive. Curious on the pricing of a single round, considering that this camera quality and framerate beats a lot of mid-quality cameras. Definitely beats my phone camera.
When this video first came out I was working at a gun store and was asked by customers daily, when we were getting some in stock. This went on for over a week. We would still be occasionally asked months later for this stuff. I'd tell people that it's fake and they would argue with me that it's not.
Just had this come up in my recommended. I go I saw this on the market. How did I mess it, DUH!!. I checked the date and found the April Fools. One of the best April fools jokes I've seen.
Because of a new invention developed my Livermore labs in California. They developed a practically frictionless micro gyro system for future miniature space exploration robots. It is scheduled for it's first mission aboard Space X A7 heavy lifter in 2024, bound for the frozen regions of Mars North pole. Scheduled to arrive just ninety seven days after launch thankfully due to a super efficient Ion engine that can divide the ions into three equal parts. The results will triples it pushing power and time to objective. This was just reported on June 2nd 2017 by the newly established, Space unity command for flight operations, of the United States Cosmic Science office. Vortex got wind, some how of this gyro system and made contact with Livermore Labs. The rest is history in the making and a major advancement in the ammo world. This report is offered by,... Fake News Forever LLC. lol.
@@Megatubahero I wonder if they patent this idea because I'm sure somebody can make it possible where make it a solid Full Metal Jacket and you have an SD card in it I guess it would only work if it hits a soft target and if it's a 50 cal
Danasouris I don't think it'd be THAT much, there are small transmitters and cameras out there even in phones. I know it'd obviously be more expensive to make smaller but at the same time the most expensive part would probably be the high speed camera. I'm thinking about $1-2000 a bullet after it was already developed and brought to market. This is if it were even possible to have THAT high speed of a camera be durable enough to be fired out of a gun and small enough to fit into a bullet. I guess it depends on how you price things that don't exist yet. You could very well be right, we're just guessing after all.
Dead Fish in Dirt easily be $200,000 at the very LEAST, the cost for the RND department would easily surpass millionjust in research alone (nantech is beyond rediculous in terms of how difficult it is to develop) then cost $100k+ for custom material and custom molds for new machinery, the molds would only spike that price higher. $200k per box is actually a Conservative estimate :/ which pisses me off Cus bullet can would be a dream. And the reason I am spitting out these numbers is because I actually help develop chips and sometimes mil tech
@@GF_Burke blow me, yep there are 2 genders, neither of which do you belong. Just because you drove across 3 states, you still married your sister.... stfu tard.
Make it non-lethal, give it a fish eye lense, and sell it to the military for reconnaissance purposes. The military would probably buy it on contract. Especially if it was subsonice since it makes it less audible. ...oh. It's a joke. It did seem like a huge waste.
Ok, A camera that can handle over 18,000 g force, over 180,000 RPM when it leaves the barrel but gives you a upright stabilized image with no blur on the edges & all for under $10 BaHaHaHa....
Willie Gilligan with a wireless signal that your phone can grab 100yds away. and an upload speed to upload a (estimating) 3mb file in less then 2 tenths of a second (another estimate) i cant even upload stuff to my hard drive via usb 3.0 that fast
+Wong YYide very true, so possibly shooting at 500fps at what appears to be 1080 at least, full color. flight time say (number out my ass) 2 tenths gives you 100 that in a camera small enough to fit in a bullet? 10 bucks a round is cheap. Ill buy that shit just for the cameras. Also batteries?
Statyk Elektro approx 3 years... once you chamber the round it activates the built in N19 lithium cell made in the camera... which is good for about 4 seconds of "flight" time..... not to mention the built in 13 gram minimum WiFi transponder....
Vortex and Hornady. Two of the best companies around. No need for a spotting scope with these babies. Is it real? hmmmmm. I seriously doubt it. I could see this would be the real life kill cam.
I work for a FFL out here in AZ and am in charge of the ammo dept. I get people asking for these often... funny cause I love Hornady ammo and Vortex products. So I know exactly what they thought was real.
Yes you can, their putting game heart monitors in the back of the bullet to let you know when the heart of the animal stops beating to tell which shots are humane/clean shots now!

What about the bullet spin??
Video frame capture is synced with bullet rotation. :)
Really,

So for every frame, the bullet will spin roughly 210 times.
Good luck with that.

Because of a new invention developed my Livermore labs in California. They developed a practically frictionless micro gyro system for future miniature space exploration robots. It is scheduled for it's first mission aboard Space X A7 heavy lifter in 2024, bound for the frozen regions of Mars North pole. Scheduled to arrive just ninety seven days after launch thankfully due to a super efficient Ion engine that can divide the ions into three equal parts. The results will triples it pushing power and time to objective. This was just reported on June 2nd 2017 by the newly established, Space unity command for flight operations, of the United States Cosmic Science office. Vortex got wind, some how of this gyro system and made contact with Livermore Labs. The rest is history in the making and a major advancement in the ammo world. This report is offered by,... Fake News Forever LLC. lol.
+C Bruce Strickland youre telling me this technology is implemented in bullets for one time use rather than our fucking phones for vrXD
Buisness wise i think this would make a hit on shark tank!
It wouldn't even work if someone tried making it
would have been great for isis last moments
GLOCK 17 no kill cam I guess 😕
Keep kicking butt . What your is doing and what you did is amazing . Can you imagine bullets for the A10 Warthog .
Hollywood's next big one-liner:
"Say cheese"
onion news did this a few years back in the version in the form of an article
Here's a question doesn't the rifling in the barrel make the bullets spiral so wouldn't the camera be spinning and video would be rotating constantly
Michael D yes, if this wasn’t an April fools video. It’s also impossible for anything to upload a video that fast even if was streaming.
@@Megatubahero I wonder if they patent this idea because I'm sure somebody can make it possible where make it a solid Full Metal Jacket and you have an SD card in it I guess it would only work if it hits a soft target and if it's a 50 cal
The app corrects the spinning footage so it can be viewed normally. There's an app for that.
They spun the gun really fast so the bullet came out straight
The best april fool video i have seen so far. Realy awesome.
When will this be available in .22 short? I reload my own to save money so I only need the bullets.
Joseph Stalin, pretty sure the joke is on you. You can't reload a .22, it's a rimfire.
Golly's Enchanted Haven
touche
Golly's Enchanted Haven you can reload .22, though it's kind of pointless because it is probably cheaper to buy it new than to reload it.
The price gave it away. less than $10 per round get the fuck out of here lol
Mike Melts About what it would cost.
Danasouris I don't think it'd be THAT much, there are small transmitters and cameras out there even in phones. I know it'd obviously be more expensive to make smaller but at the same time the most expensive part would probably be the high speed camera. I'm thinking about $1-2000 a bullet after it was already developed and brought to market. This is if it were even possible to have THAT high speed of a camera be durable enough to be fired out of a gun and small enough to fit into a bullet.
I guess it depends on how you price things that don't exist yet. You could very well be right, we're just guessing after all.
Dead Fish in Dirt easily be $200,000 at the very LEAST, the cost for the RND department would easily surpass millionjust in research alone (nantech is beyond rediculous in terms of how difficult it is to develop) then cost $100k+ for custom material and custom molds for new machinery, the molds would only spike that price higher. $200k per box is actually a Conservative estimate :/ which pisses me off Cus bullet can would be a dream. And the reason I am spitting out these numbers is because I actually help develop chips and sometimes mil tech
The price gave it away? Lmao
I just got a box of these and set them up all around my house, along my game trail, on my cars' dashboard-- cheapest security system you can buy.
Great for military blind firing
Or for a 360 no scope trick shot.
@@GF_Burke blow me, yep there are 2 genders, neither of which do you belong. Just because you drove across 3 states, you still married your sister.... stfu tard.
Oh yea, did I say stfu?
True Thought woah there Son how bout you put that gigabrain back in it's case and relax a bit
"Stops recording on impact". No shit! Excellent video. The thought of every round having its own IP address!
When nerds get jobs at ammunition companies....
People actually believe this
Any sources denying its function champ?
Mr Ghoulington the bullet spins idiot
Mr Ghoulington the fact that they said April fools in the description lol
you guys are going to get allot of phone calls asking if this is real
Gives new meaning to the phrase, "Head Shots".
posted before 1st April so it's not an April fool's 👍
Make it non-lethal, give it a fish eye lense, and sell it to the military for reconnaissance purposes. The military would probably buy it on contract. Especially if it was subsonice since it makes it less audible.
...oh. It's a joke.
It did seem like a huge waste.
David Drake described such an artillery round in one of his Hammer's Slammers books The Warrior.
Reading the comments. Funny as hell how many guys believes this is a serious product.
I bought these rounds. Work great.
Great products haven’t got the bullet cam Send one here to nz I’d love to try it out. Bloody amazing
100 bucks for a box of 10? Well if I'm gonna use them it's gonna be on something good. Not a target or animal. I'm making each shot worth it.
Ok, A camera that can handle over 18,000 g force, over 180,000 RPM when it leaves the barrel but gives you a upright stabilized image with no blur on the edges & all for under $10 BaHaHaHa....
Willie Gilligan with a wireless signal that your phone can grab 100yds away. and an upload speed to upload a (estimating) 3mb file in less then 2 tenths of a second (another estimate) i cant even upload stuff to my hard drive via usb 3.0 that fast
the thing that jumped at me was the incredible frame-rate for the slo-mo shots
+Wong YYide very true, so possibly shooting at 500fps at what appears to be 1080 at least, full color. flight time say (number out my ass) 2 tenths gives you 100 that in a camera small enough to fit in a bullet? 10 bucks a round is cheap. Ill buy that shit just for the cameras.
Also batteries?
Statyk Elektro approx 3 years... once you chamber the round it activates the built in N19 lithium cell made in the camera... which is good for about 4 seconds of "flight" time..... not to mention the built in 13 gram minimum WiFi transponder....
ok, so its not quite a GoPro
Vortex and Hornady. Two of the best companies around. No need for a spotting scope with these babies. Is it real? hmmmmm. I seriously doubt it. I could see this would be the real life kill cam.
IntimateGamer Duh, Beyond the technical challenges I never even considered the legal nightmare this would be! Excellent point.
IntimateGamer .
IntimateGamer Oh boy..... Really!?!
Wilfred Darr ITS A DRONE!!! OOOOOOO...
I work for a FFL out here in AZ and am in charge of the ammo dept. I get people asking for these often... funny cause I love Hornady ammo and Vortex products. So I know exactly what they thought was real.
You can share your killing?
too good
Yes you can, their putting game heart monitors in the back of the bullet to let you know when the heart of the animal stops beating to tell which shots are humane/clean shots now!
Facebook live assassin.
I hear they're making broad heads now for archery.
Thunder head 80 gr. Great image stabilization. No blurring at all. ;)......... lolol
