| X10.com Introduces Wireless Color Video Camera XCam™ sends real-time video signals anywhere in the home — X10.com, (www.x10.com/pressroom5.htm) the leader in the Wired Home revolution, has created a new super-small, super-sharp color video camera called the XCam. The XCam is essentially a mini-camera that plugs into a VideoSender transmitter (which plugs into the wall) to send real-time video to a TV, VCR or monitor up to 100 feet away. That’s one-third the length of a football field. Simply plug the VideoSender Receiver into the back of the TV, VCR or monitor you wish, and voila’, live video appears. The two units are wireless and talk to each other using a 2.4-gigahertz radio signal. The XCam can keep an eye on a room, like where all your guests are making fools of themselves at your party. With the camera connected to the VCR, the recorded footage will be invaluable the next time one of them steps out of line. The XCam can also focus on a door, entryway, yard, and swimming pool, almost anything. The XCam is the perfect way to stop destruction before it starts by monitoring the playroom. If you have picture-in-picture on your TV, you can watch the kids and still see the game or your favorite show. "This is your chance to have fun with wireless color video in a way you’ve never experienced before," said Alex Peder, president of X10 (USA) retail sales division. "The XCam is perfect for the times when your home can seem a little small and routine. Come on, indulge yourself, live a little for crying out loud." XCam/VideoSENDER Kit

The XCam works with the millions of PC video capture devices such as Snappyä to freeze frames that can be saved as images and sent to family and friends or live on your desktop. XCam is also compatible with the MicrosoftÒ WebTV Networkä Plus Service. Not only that, but the XCam also allows you to record live video wirelessly using your VCR.
