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.
