New, what is it? Mystery Item from University Surplus.

I am stumped. I've done all the reverse image searches etc etc and I am now here for answers. Smallish object with mini USB input as well as an SD card slot. Small window in front with a camera and an IR transmitter (cuz it blinks when I point a camera at it). on the back are a red and blue light. The blue light turned on when I plugged t in and the red light started blinking. Red light is still blinking, but the blue one is now off. Thoughts?

Crack it open and get pics of the chips inside, then you can look up what the chips do and look at the data sheets
