PHOENIX -- A two-foot metal snake with a tiny but powerful camera at the tip would allow Border Patrol to more easily check backpacks and car trunks without sticking their hands inside. The endoscopic camera produced by RF Systems Lab was originally used to defuse improvised explosive devices in Afghanistan and Iraq, and it costs $10,000. A footlong camera installed in a remote-controlled car can wind its way through the sewer systems beneath Nogales, Mexico, that stretch across the border into Arizona.
