R2D2 Wireless Remote Control Webcam

Rabid Star Wars fans will buy just about anything regardless of the cost as witnessed by the R2D2 Wireless Remote Control Webcam. Sure it’s very cool to have a RC R2D2 to roam your home or office, you would think at $349.99 they could have put in a decent webcam and do R2 proud. What they did use was a wussy 628 x 528 resolution webcam that isn’t quite up to projecting decent images of Princess Leia.

The cool part is that the little droid doesn’t have to be wired to your PC with a USB cable since it’s wireless. You can control R2 with the included Lightsaber remote or via your PC from anywhere in the world. The remote also doubles as a Skype handset. This R2 cam would be cool sitting next to your Star Wars Mimobot.
