LAS VEGAS — Wearable cameras are lots of fun for capturing action sports and real life events. But they only record to memory cards.

What if you could slip a camera on your body to capture your life — and have it be broadcast in real time?

That's the game plan for Liquid Image, a startup that in June will launch a line of wearable cameras that broadcast over Verizon's 4G LTE network. The camera sells for $199, and a broadcast module that pairs with the camera is another $199.

"Everybody wants to be a social hero, right?" asks Kent Pearson of Liquid Image.
