I want to set up a camera that is attached to some sort of microcontroller. My idea is to have a PIR sensor detect motion and then have this camera take a picture of the scene and then send that picture through Zigbee to my computer. I have been toying around with a webcam camera but then figured that usb was not the way to go and that tearing apart a cheap camera and connecting it to a micro was more efficient. Firstly I would like to know if you guys have any ideas on what camera / microcontroller would be best suited for this endeavor. I was thinking some sort of PIC micro since the Zigbee transceiver that im using is designed to interface with it. And secondly I would like to know if you guys have any ideas on how to send an image though Zigbee.
Thanks for the input,
