    You are free to define your own protocol...

    I will second BigWumpus on the protocol part. However if you are not game to do it that way, you can take a chunk of 16 bytes, checksum it and send. When received, ack/nak the chunk to decide whether to move on. This may be far simpler to implement.

    A file is a file. Whether a .jpg, or text, you need to know where it is, how long it is, and the destination. You need horsepower, and 32 bit math. I sent pictures from an SD card, to an SD card wirelessly. It took a while at 115Kbaud. GMRS has limited bandwidth.

    Something between 10-40 Seconds Sending and ~ 80 KB.

    For the moment I want to use this Resolution 640X480 Pixel.

    I think,

    if you mange it to read out the ccd and you know what system will work on the "end" of the GPRS-connection, then it will be easy to find a simple protocol you can use.

    So, do your homework and try to make clear, what you want to do.

    :-)

    1-2 Months.

    I need this for a Elevator,I have in the Elevator a Security system that is connectd with a GPRS Modem.
    When someone Push the SOS Button then I make a single Picture shot and then I send the Data to the Security Center to see what is wrong .
    The Problem is that I dont know what Digital Camera should I use for this Project.

    What is the average, not maximum data rate for the GPRS modem?
