Sorry Brickshelf doesn't seem to be clearing my images.
I have sent them to you direct.
As for the link someone has just posted I got my camera for £10 sterling off of
Ebay.
I know they are a little dearer these days, but no where near $110.
All you need is the camera and a receiver just do a search for wireless camera.
You should be able to get one for around $30.
Brick parts cost pence.
Cheers
Mick

Could you post direct links to your pictures? I'm quite interested in your
wireless setup. It wouldn't by any chance fit into a monorail car (4 wide, could
be made 6 wide) ...

I posted this link ages ago and it didn't seem to work.
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=63383
Here are some photos of a wirelss camera I made for my setup.
It is powered by a single motor port and the footage is then captured via a TV
card in my PC.
You can also just run it from a 9v battery.
The range is excellent and far outreaches the range of a RCX or Spybotic module.
I have found the best unit to use this camera on is the cybermaster as the RF
functionality lends itself well to long range applications.
Any questions please drop me a line.

Many Mindstorms RIS 2.0/RCX2 users like you want the ability to control their
Lego creations (robots, webcams, etc.) over the Internet using a 'plug-in free'
JAVA client interface. Currently only RIS 1.x users have the ability to easily
perform this function using the readily available third-party software written
specifically for their versions. For this reason I have created a project
webpage in hopes of bringing interested RIS 2.0 users together, in a group
effort, to find a solution to this 2.0 shortcoming
Please refer to:

Actually WebRCX beta 3 has USB support.
Plus I'm working on my own program (which eventually will support USB)
which hopefully will include support for streaming webcam images as well.
