12 years ago, when we already had Arduino but no ESP32 yet, I built this thing:

It was made of an old HTC Magic phone, acting as camera+wifi transmitter, connected to Arduino via its serial port and level shifter, to control the servo and a RGB LED. I had a lot of fan with that, even if the connection wasn't really to stable.

Thanks for sharing, maybe it's time to revive the project with the next generation of the microcontroller.

Thanks everyone for the feedback on the project. I hope to keep it going and would love to see some PRs.

Just one last thing, if you like the project, the coolest thing you can do for me is let anyone you know looking for a remote developer to hit me up. I am a Ruby-on-Rails developer at heart but would also consider robotics gigs. Thanks!
