Spy Tech 101: The Different Types of Popular Bugging Devices

Spy2When you think of bugging devices, what comes to mind?? Some people think about small microphones that are covertly hidden in places, and others think about elaborate set ups that involve listening devices that are disguised to look like common objects.? Essentially a bugging device is a listening device that can intercept communications and transmit them to a designated listening post, but there are different categories of these devices:

Acoustic Bugs

The acoustic bug is a very simple listening device that you?ve probably used in the past.? If you?ve ever pressed a cup against a door to hear a conversation in the next room, you?ve used an acoustic bugging device. Acoustic bugging devices are placed into an area, and they directly intercept communication with your ear without the use of electronics. An acoustic bugging device can be a water glass, stethoscope, or even rubber tubing.

Ultrasonic Bugs/VLF Bugs

Ultrasonic bugs/VLF bugs work by converting sound into an audio signal that?s above the range of human hearing.? Once the sound is converted, the ultrasonic signal is intercepted near by and is converted back into audio at the designated listening post/device so that it can be heard.

Optical Bugs

Optical bugging devices may be one of the most hi-tech bugging devices available.? Optical bugs can convert sound or data into an optical pulse or a beam of light.? If you?ve seen an optical listening device, you?ve probably seen a device that uses either active or passive laser listening.

Radio Frequency Bug/ RF Bug

The RF bug is one of the most popular and well-known listening devices available.? RF bugs work by placing a radio transmitter in an area or a device, and the radio transmitter relays audio back to the designated listening post/device.

Sound Amplifiers

Sound amplifiers are quickly becoming a popular way for people to covertly listen to conversations and communications.? These devices use omni-directional microphones that pick up sound and transmit them to high-quality earphones.
