ENLIGHTENED LIGHTING

Creepy ‘spy lightbulb’ that can record your every move unveiled at CES 2017

The spy lightbulb is one of several new gadgets being flogged at the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week

THIS might be one of the creepiest products to be unveiled at CES 2017.

You can now get your hands on a video-camera concealed in a light bulb.

Its maker, Bell and Wyson, claim it’s designed to spot intruders.

Homeowners can watch what’s going on using an app on their smartphone from wherever they are in the world.

And it lets you control your lighting too.

So if you want to make it appear as though you’re at home, you can turn the bulb on at the push of a button.

It even boasts a smoke detector, which will put you at east while you’re away.

But customers might be put off after a wave of creepy hidden camera-related crimes.

In one case a Starbucks customer found a spy camera in the toilets in south London.

There’s also been a rise in spy tech in hotel rooms and AirBnBs after sick landlords and motel owners were found to be filming their guests.
