Finally, the Truth

Shows like Food Network’s Mystery Diners and Restaurant Stakeout both taken advantage of the use of hidden cameras in a restaurant setting so the manager can detect problem employees that are costing the facility big dollars.
Have you ever wished human beings had a video recording feature built into our body that was always on? (It would not be for the aspect of voyeurism). I was thinking more for the use of a problem solver in a disagreement.
You’ve had an argument with someone. You are both firm in the correctness of your positions. The longer the two of you argue; details become less clear. You are determined not to be the first one to give in. Wouldn’t verification of the innocent bystander bring the whole thing to a peaceful conclusion?
You’ve lost your car keys (glasses, or cell phone-you choose) many times in the past. Retracing your steps this time does not produce them. If you don’t leave now for work, you will be late. Footage of the key’s location would definitely be of value to you right about now.
You can’t remember if you took your medication this morning. Turn on your built-in body cam, and refresh your memory as to whether you took your pills or not.

I’m not sure if something like this exists already or not. It is important to remember that you are an imperfect human; a you can only do what you can do. Is mentally berating yourself for your forgetfulness productive in the long run? You need to come to your own conclusion.
