Rearview camera
 
Is there such a thing for a bike? With today's technology, I could see having a rearview camera with Bluetooth that displays its image to your GPS computer. Is there a company out there that makes one?

For clarification, I am thinking of using the camera as a rearview mirror. I don't use one currently, I just keep an ear open and do my head checks.

This is the most popular one - no realtime display on your smartphone or whatever though:

This one has an LCD display - costs a little more:

Why not a mirror?

My thoughts exactly.
I used a mirror when riding in Atlanta. Now that I live in Florida and ride on bike trails I still like to know who or what is coming up behind me. Here's what I use now.
