I remember seeing some lovely folks from CCC setting up an RC car with a ptz on it at HOPE two years ago. 

Since the Camps tend to have a considerable bandwidth available, maybe a similar solution would be the way to go.

Setup a live flash feed, and some web controls for the RC vehicle and open it up to hackerspaces.

The car camera could be accessed via wifi.  The controls... whatever... maybe xbee, maybe a standard RC  RF transmitter.

I'd be down to work on it if someone else is willing to help out.

Anyone good with telepresence?  Of course, you should be going to CCCamp this August in Berlin http://events.ccc.de/2010/08/10/chaos-communication-camp-2011, since it will be an incredible experience for all who are there, but even if you aren't there, you can help out by helping others who can't be there be as much a part of it as possible.
 
Nick Farr is helping organize this.  If you know anything about telepresence, and making it work, could you please contact him?

Thanks!
