If only there was some commonly available device which had a camera attached and was capable of transmitting data over large distances!

Man, someone should invent that.

Anything that involves a modded cellphone camera is obvious in the very early stages of development. I would have hung on to this idea a bit longer and produced a proper prototype.

Well then you obviously can’t read , it mentions two … back to school!

Be nice to have some more info tho – I’d find it hard to believe the phone can run the software as these things usually require some number-crunching power, but if it doesn’t why’re they using a phone?

Some more info, but not a lot, here:
