Re: covert HMD w/camera

I realy like the covert nature of the camera. I plan
to have a camera of some sort on the HMD when I build
a wearable. My problem is this. I have no idea how to
hook up a spy type cam to a computer. Would I need a
video capture card? I was thinking of using a
kensington webcam, but a webcam is going to be more
bulky.

By the way. whats the resulution on the display?
