Smartphone Endoscopic/Borescopic Camera
Cell phone with a long cable attached to it and a camera and light at the far end of the cable.

A Smartphone Endoscopic/Borescopic Camera can be a valuable yet relatively inexpensive tool around the farmstead (workshop, garage, home). With this technology, one can inspect small or otherwise hard-to-access areas that need repair or maintenance, e.g., vehicle engine, equipment undercarriage, electrical wiring, HVAC, sewer drainpipe. In addition to the smartphone app, some kits consist of a cable with a camera and light at one end and the smartphone connector at the other; others have more complex camera controllers.
