Opportunity for large sensor low resolution camera

Since most people actually don't print, shouldn't it be a good idea for Ricoh to make a camera with a 1000 pixels wide full frame sensor , at 100 frames per seconds, super low light sensitivity and direct posting to Pentax forum via wifi? Guess would be with the image processor of the K1 they could reach the 100 frames per second.

Interesting idea, it reminds me of the snapchat spectacles but more serious. It could be useful if you could mount it to the hot shoe of the camera in a much smaller non full frame fixed lens version. I have seen photographers with go pros and phones mounted to the top of their cameras for what I assume would be a similar task.

It might not take all the processing power of a K-1 type camera. A number of alternatives are available to the K-1 at much lower cost (see below). One problem such a camera has to deal with is just getting all the sensor data downloaded so it can go on to the next frame. While the K-1 sensor might be able to do 100 frames per second, it's a lot of overkill if low resolution frames are needed, and a custom sensor tailored to the task might be a better choice. In fact, several phone cameras can do "slow motion" at present and may be worth looking at.
