Video signal through Wireless headphones

Would it work to simply send video through wireless headphones instead of audio with the receiver (headphones) hooked to a screen? Or is that out of the question?

hm interesting question I think it may be possible but I'm not no expert. I have some wireless head sets that I may try to do this on later on.

..... Send video through headphones? I'm pretty sure you cant watch movies on a pair of headphones

Really, I had no idea

? Read again - There would be a screen hooked to the headphones in place of the speakers.

No, you can't, the signal would be much too weak.

Not exactly. The problem is that the bandwidth is too narrow. A video signal requires a bandwidth of about 1 MHz whereas the headphones transceiver has a bandwidth of at most 50 kHz.

You might be able to get a narrow bandwidth TV signal through it, since they can fit through a voice line, though you'll get a 32 line, grayscale image at 12.5 FPS.
