Historic Section Golf Cart Bridge
 
In The Historic Section when traveling from the Dog Park over the Golf Cart Bridge maybe half way between the Bridge and the Parking Lot look to the right near the pond. There is a new installation there. It appears to be a Solar Device and a Camera and what looks to be a Radar Detector. I don't make the news I just am reporting what I noticed. I took a picture but am technologically challenged. Anybody know what this is all about? Don't dare answer Russian's! :jester: Speed Trap? I'm gonna wear a mask just in case. LOL

Come on post the picture, inquiring minds want to know. Maybe a fly trap.

It's not that hard.

It sounds like the sheriff has set up a red light camera for those who live in Jurassic Park.

There are a lot of lizards around Lake Paradise Park's bushes and the like but these a little small for velociraptors and especially T-Rexs.

Maybe some one has been reading the letters to the editor on the other news provider and installed the first of several listening devices? If successful you can bet on more to come! lololololol

What is it? Enquiring minds want to know? Traffic counter for US 441/27?

There are alot of strange looking devices used for wireless communications. Could be that, but just a guess on my part.

dhsmith 07-04-2017 09:04 AM

Looks to me like a Bug Zapper.The solar panel provides the power.

Got it! Sex on a blanket under the tree near the lake. Better than the floor of the gazebo or back of the electric box. Nope, can't post that even if you had a picture. :wave:

I wonder if it is one of the new fangled devices the LEOs put out that help triangulate the area from which gun shots have come. There have been reports on the news of these being deployed for the 4th.

Your answer would be the best of them all. LOL.

Nucky 07-06-2017 02:25 PM

Many people holding court near this new fangled device but no conclusions yet?

If you get near it, make sure you put aluminum foil on your head.

I was concerned it was to attract people back to The Political Forum. :jester::jester::rant-rave: Just Kidding but every time someone drives past it an arm comes on on one side it says D and on the other side it says R. I think its a R because the sun faded it out already. Don't know what they stand for??

Seriously wait till the first speeding ticket is issued, the tears will be a flowing then. :a20:

The flat sq part is a solar collector to produce electricity. Avoids the cost off running wires. Someone guessed an insect collector.
That is what it looks like to me. It would make sense for them to monitor insects and avoid stuff like ebola etc.

If, right do I win somethin? Do I have to split the prize with
the person who posted the picture??

You should win something for sure. :eclipsee_gold_cup: Those first few pictures with the Bug Zapper was because I couldn't post the picture that Mr. dbussone did for me that is the device in question.

It's hidden behind a tree perfectly to catch a speeder.

You won't win if you are basing your guess on the bug zapper. The picture of the real device can be seen by using the link on post #23.

Now, as to the prize. If you win you will get to select anything you'd like from Amazon, as long as there is no shipping cost and the item is less than 0.99 cents.

Here is what Nucky saw.

I looked at it the other day close up. Looks like maybe a motion activated camera for traffic count of carts ? I didn't think to have my alien mask on at the time though!:laugh:

JoelJohnson 07-07-2017 03:29 PM

It seems to point to the Ruby Tuesday parking lot.

What link in Post #23?

I just noticed another simular looking device mounted by where Parr drive comes up to Belvedere. It looks like it's facing the cart tunnel opening.

Similar to winning a bet on the three-word thread. :evil6:
