idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna have to make a bot that uses this
camera with a remote transmiter, luckily i can get kits for that, it be a
fairly big bot but thats AWESOME!!! The thought never even crossed my mind,
im gonna have to bust that out now! thx for the great idea! Keep on BEAMin!
