The built-in Wi-Fi and free Looxcie mobile app turn the Looxcie HD video camera into a personal streaming device, which means you can share what's happening while it happens. And, because it connects wirelessly to your smartphone or tablet, you can use it anytime, anywhere. You can also create an "instant replay" of what just happened with the unique Instant Clip button or share a live video stream with Facebook friends. Plus, for added flexibility right out of the box, the Looxcie HD comes with a ball cap mount, a helmet mount and a bike mount.
