Perhaps you haven't seen the latest spy cameras, but they may be looking at you.

Surveillance cameras are so widespread that in New York City the average working person is recorded about 73 times a day, according to CCS International Inc., a leading provider of surveillance gear.

Surveillance cameras are everywhere -- in stores, hallways, offices and at automated teller machines.

While such recording devices have been a part of business operations for years, their use in homes is just now starting to take off -- thanks in part to improvements in technology.

"The cameras keep getting smaller and smaller, and the wireless transmission is getting stronger as well," said Arielle Jamil, a spokeswoman for CCS International, based in New Rochelle, N.Y. "It used to be they would transmit about 25 feet. Now they travel 100 feet and farther."

Manufacturers have stashed tiny little cameras in all kinds of otherwise innocuous objects.
