reverse camera

#1 (**permalink**) 06-09-2004, 09:39 AM

hi all
i am looking for away to use my pda as a reversing camera - has anyone got any idea how i can connect a camera using my sd card slot or sync slot on my dell x30 pda - i know you can get a camera that goes directly into sd card slot but need to run wire about 3 metres - any ideas????

thanks
nathan

Welcome to our forums.
I know what you are looking for but haven't seen any. It would be a big task to try yourself but you may be able to pull it off by using an SD card reader, some cable and an old SD card to cannibalise to make into and extension. Couldn't say for sure if it would work but let us know if you try it.

You can get an output from a PDA to AV but not an input to my knowledge.
