I built a harness out of duct tape and cardboard (cardboard + duct tape, BFF) and attached an old digital camera with an RCA video output that fed a constant signal to the small screen fixed to the front of the harness.  For longevity, I powered the camera with four “C” batteries (regulated to 5V).

I covered the harness with a bloodied-up white sweater.

Enjoy!
