Which GPS Helmet Cam?

Since you have found your way here it is likely that you understand quite a bit about helmet cams by now. Indeed, there are over 100 million extreme sports lovers worldwide. Nevertheless|However], GPS helmet cameras are a fairly new development so a little knowledge could be useful.

The man who founded Contour, Marc Barros, was heard to describe the GPS development as “combining a flip video camera, a YouTube user-generated video site and Google Maps together into a single, easy-to-use product”. He followed this remark by stating that “we call this new form of storytelling ‘Video Mapping’. The inclusion of GPs brings a whole new level of context to any video, making location, speed, time and conditions as important as what you recorded”.

The 2 GPS helmet cameras that I have looked at in detail are the Oregon Scientific ATC9K 1080P HD GPS-Ready video camera and the Contour GPS HD video camera, and they are both studied in more depth on my review site. These are both ticketed at around the $350 to $370 area. Regarding the Oregon Scientific camera, I have incorporated the GPS plug-in, because the Oregon helmet camera is only ‘GPS-ready’ and the actual GPS module is an extra.

So what are the extra benefits of a GPS helmet camera for you, the outdoor action enthusiast or extreme sports professional? Well…here goes:

  • Suppose that you are a venture planner or enthusiast who designs trails, rides etc. and who needs to evaluate them…GPS information would be useful, wouldn’t it.
  • If you venture up in the mountains Skiing, Snowboarding, Mountain-Biking etc., you could record every spill, jump, fall and wipeout and pinpoint the precise spot where it occurred.
  • The GPS helmet camera gives you the opportunity to throw out challenges to your fellow enthusiasts such as “who can record the most altitude in a given time” or “who can make the best run” or “who is fastest between 2 agreed points”.
  • Professional sportsmen and trainers would perhaps be interested in acceleration and distance parameters that a GPS helmet camera would give them.

Both of these helmet cameras are light, weighing just a few ounces. Most of their respective features are the same or similar but there are a few differences in capability and design in the following areas:

  • Waterproofing
  • Build materials
  • Number of recording modes
  • Remote control facility
  • Mounting aids, both provided and optional

There are ‘fors’ and ‘againsts’ on both helmet cams so your final verdict will be entirely subjective. However, further points of interest on both GPS helmet cams can be seen at ‘HiDefHelmetCams’ to help clear your mind as to which will suit you best.

On each of these GPS video cameras the sports action and GPS information is synchronised, utilising ‘Google Maps’ and when you replay the video the GPS information appears alongside in both cases .

Your next step is to find out more on both the Oregon ATC9K and the Contour GPS HD by visiting ‘HiDefHelmetCams’, the first port of call for helmet camera enthusiasts.

About the Author

My name is Bruce Barker and I am still teaching Fitness at the age of 69. My interest in Helmet Cameras was stirred by a couple of my clients who use them when mountain biking and climbing.
Having seen what great fun they had with these cameras, I did some research and decided to try one myself! This, too, was on a mountain bike, believe it or not!
Further information can be seen at HiDefHelmetCams.
