Time again for more wireless network tests before we (well not me personally) head north to Kindrogan in Scotland to support another disabled student on their SXR339 summer school. As usual, we head for a field in Wolverton and for a good hour or so are ignored by a herd of cows. Their inqusitive nature eventually got the better of them though and they mosied on over to investigate.
What's so remarkable about this photo of a coin? Nothing. Its the camera that's remarkable. I used a Ricoh Caplio 500SE-W which is not only waterproof and environmentally sealed to IP67, but also has built-in Bluetooth and 802.11 wireless functionality. You can set it up so that you can send photos straight after you have taken them. It can even resize them before it sends, allowing you to keep the original 8Mb file on the SD card and send a web-sized copy straight to a webserver. Very clever stuff!
