Ruggedized Minicamera

Abstract

When NASA needed a video camera for the Space Shuttle, they turned to Videospection, Inc., a company specializing in cameras for unusual and demanding applications. Videospection developed a "ruggedized" minicamera, measuring 7 1/2" in diameter and enclosed in a sealed aluminum housing. This led to two new commercial models, utilized where ruggedness, high resolution and reliability are required. Other Videospection cameras are used for internal inspection of nuclear reactors, digital radiography and flaw detection applications.
