Arduino TTL camera with Bluetooth

I fiigured i would start a new discussion and get somemore info on how to integrate arduino uno and mego with bluetooth and a TTL camera.

My question is, is it possible to use an arduino uno or mega with a TTL camera and a bluetooth to communicate with labview.  The mega has a lot of differenet RX and TX ports so can i use one for the bluetooth and a different set for the camera.  I know the bluetooth has a high enough baud rate to support the camera but i also dont really know how to stream and display the video on the main screen of labview. 

Let me know your thoughts.

For  best performance you need to transmit the JPEG image as binary data. See:

For saving and displaying the JPEG image in Labview see:

To display NTSC video you need the following extra cost Labview add on.

However, it may not be available for purchase for use with the student edition of Labview.

ok i will look into those options. 

I actually have the full VisionAcquisition software so that part im good with at least.  I had added a bunch of modules when i purchased the student version for school.
