Hi, previously I have posted regarding building a wireless USB webcam that send real time images.
I was adviced that that wasn't a good idea due to the huge amount of bandwidth needed and also other factors.
I have thought it through and I have another idea, a simpler one and a more practical one (I hope).
Instead of transmitting real time life images, the webcam only captures a still image and send it to the PC when I click a button. For a start, just a monochrome image will do because it will need less bandwidth.
The webcam will then send the data via wireless (radio signal) to the receiver attached to the USB port.
The process of the webcam taking a picture, process it and send it to the PC can take about minutes. It doesn't really matter as I am more interested in the mechanics/how it is done compared to the speed.
So, can anybody please point me in the direction of how to do it..?
I have started by reading the book "USB Complete".. Thanks..
