Introducing the Camera Grenade, or the I-Ball. It is a ball with two fish-eye lenses that you can through or launch and get real time 360 degree video without putting you or any of you equipment (minus the ball of course) in danger.

"Dubbed the I-Ball the wireless device is robust enough to survive being thrown onto a battlefield.

The I-Ball's internal camera gives a 360 degree view, with images being sent from the instant it is launched.

It is thought the new technology would enable soldiers to see into potential danger spots without putting themselves at risk of ambush."
