Industrial Covert Unlimited, a supplier of Security and Covert cameras to retail, dealers and installers has announced the creation of its first camera building contest. This contest is an opportunity for creative individuals to demonstrate the abilities of professionals, and some amateurs to create whatever is necessary to get the job done.

The winners in each category will receive cash and recognition for their work at an awards banquet in Las Vegas in 2005.

Hey! is that plant watching me?

Covert Design a camera which is hidden from sight. As a security or spy application which most people wouldn't suspect is for observation or surveillance.

Day/Night Build your perfect Day and night surveillance solution. Entries can incorporate IR emitters/illuminators to assist in the lighting of observed subjects.

Whacky Sometimes a camera is built just to be strange. This is for you wierdos who have a sense of humor about security video, and surveillance.

Freeform Security and surveillance cameras not recognized by some of the other categories. Special purpose and function perhaps?

Manufacturer Here is an opportunity for manufacturers to enter up to three of their top cameras, and gain exposure with critical examination of their products.

Cameras will be judged on a number of points relative to the category they have been entered. Judging will be done by a panel of five professionals from the CCTV, Investigative, and Security industries.
