Remote CMOS camera

Now that I've finally managed to fix my COM port problem, and my version of
BoEBoT is running around the house quite happily I would like to try and
find a small radio Txer that can send pictures from it. I have a small B/W
camera which is about 35mm square and wish to attach it to the BoEBoT and
somehow get it to send the pictures by radio back to the TV card on my PC.
The smaller the device and the cheapest would be prefriable.
Thanks in advance

John

    Try the x2Cam from http://www.x10.com .
    It's an integrated cammera/transmitter with audio (up to about 100ft) for
    80$

    Try Ramsey Electronics for Tx/Rx audio/video. I believe the URL is
    [noparse][[/noparse] www.ramsey.com ].

    Thanks CS for your help, but unfortunately you missed the point, I already
    have the camera, I just need a Txer/Rxer that I can attach to the camera.
    Although I was impressed with the X2Cam, I may buy one for a future project.
    Thanks again

    I believe http://www.x10.com also sells a wireless video distribution tool
    which does the same thing as the camera, but has video inputs rather than a
    camera.

    X10 does have the units separately, but... they are pretty bulky depending
    on your needs.

    Try:

    http://www.supercircuits.com/index.html

    They have a wide range of sizes, abilities, and of course prices.

    I may have something that will help its all the way over here in australia
    but they are the cheapest price's in australia it a seperate
    tx and rx the tx is about the size of a match box and the rx if small to

    with 4 channels and seperate anttena's
    so you can have up to 4 camera's at the same time and it operate's at 2.4
    ghz so you get no noise and range of about 100meter's
