The answer

It is better not to install the device that transmits images in the mosque because there is disagreement regarding the ruling on images, and because women can follow the Imam by hearing his voice or seeing him or seeing someone who sees him while they are inside the mosque. Resorting to this falls under doubtful matters, and the houses of Allah must be protected from what has not been proven to be legislated. The harm resulting from placing the device is greater than the anticipated benefit, and warding off harm takes precedence over acquiring benefits.
