Is there an open source Android application that allows you to view the image on a “spy” camera? I have a robot that has an IOIO board and a ZigBee network connection and I wanted to make it a spy robot by adding a camera. I want to view the image on this camera while the robot is driving around. It needs to be open source so I can incorporate the code that retrieves the camera pictures into my existing application that controls the robot. Please comment with the camera and open source application. Top answer might get something special 🙂 Thanks!

Zigbee doesn’t really have the bandwidth to stream video. According to the Wikipedia page:
The 2.4 GHz band provides up to 250 kbit/s, 915 MHz provides up to 40 kbit/s and 868 MHz provides a data rate up to 20 kbit/s. The actual data throughput will be less than the maximum specified bit rate due to the packet overhead and processing delays.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZigBee#Radio_hardware
