Sony Ericsson is introducing a Bluetooth controlled mobile camera, the Bluetoth Motion Cam ROB-1. It can be controlled via a Sony Ericsson Bluetooth mobile phone and moves forward and backward on three wheels. It is equipped with a VGA camera (640x480) that will transmit the video back to the mobile phone. The camera is a mini computer running on Linux powered by a 200Mhz ARM processor and 2MB of memory. On the homepage, it is said: "We bet you didn't know that Bluetooth wireless technology could be this much fun". True, I did not see this coming. I think that I like it a lot because of the superb design of the camera, I'll say it one more time: good design sells.
