I want to get a goose neck target cam setup, with remote viewing via bluetooth or wifi on my iphone or laptop.
Any recommendation. Need brand and description of your set up. How to set up so target does not look oblique.
Thanks in advance.

Re: recommendation for wifi target cam setup
Raspberry Pi can be setup with to steam video to a VLC source.

The computer costs 35 dollars, the camera module costs 40 - but any usb webcam will work.

Raspberry Pi outputs video stream to network. Laptop decodes network stream with VLC. Could work over 100m if you had a long enough CAT5e cable.
Moderately technical. Needs a 5V source although you can use PoE with an intermediate step board.
You could do the same with a spare laptop with a webcam, or even a desktop with a webcam.
You can also buy out of the box wireless IP cameras, I think they are worth about 60-80USD, although not sure of quality.
Recently bought 20 x RPis to teach computer programming (MIT Scratch, Python) to 9-14 kids at work. Good little computer.
