T&T: Rear view camera

[B.]

As for rear wiew cameras, I'm interested myself and would like to have more
information. It seems to me that a webcam would not work far away from the
computer.

Is there such a thing as a bluetooth camera ? If so, how far will it work ?

Is there any device which can cover a distance of 30 to 40 ft? Most cheap
cameras on the web don't seem to go any further than 20 ft.
