Heartography or how Nikon turned dogs into photographers

Nikon Heartography - the world through a dog's eyes

At Nikon, they developed the Heartography system, which allows dogs to take pictures of things that excite them. It recognizes this through the dog's heartbeat, which is detected by the collar, and the result is sent to a camera holder, which the dog carries like a barrel Bernard. Every time the furry four-legged friend sees something that excites him and gets his heart rate up, the photographer snaps a photo. So they can show people what they like, what they saw, what they did, where they went, what they smelled and who they hung out with.

Nikon has created a special dog holder for compact camera, which offers people a view of the world through the eyes of a dog, but above all, how they make you feel. Much like photographers who capture the scenes that awaken them emotional response, was a project Heartography created to find out what makes dogs enthusiastic. The system consists of two components. Collars that measures heart rate and Nikon's special holder or case for the camera. The collar provides information about the dog's heart rate wirelessly sends to the holder which he presses the trigger only if the number on the mini-screen accompanying the pulse exceeds a certain level (basically we can set it ourselves).
