This Australian Invention Allowed Viewers To Share The Thrills Of Driving A Racing Car

Race Cam

In 1979 a team of engineers at Sydney’s Channel Seven broadcast a car race from a thrilling new angle; from inside one of the racing cars. The Race Cam camera was bolted behind the driver. Its picture was transmitted to a helicopter following overhead and passed to the television station for broad cast to viewers. The race cam was invented by Geoff Healy and is now used to broadcast many different sports around the world.
