A video camera is a device that can record moving images to a a physical or electronic support, or transmit a video stream to a remote location.
Video camera applications are numerous throughout industry. They enable one to monitor production lines and sites, collect data at a distance, recognize objects, etc.
They may constitute the sensing component on an automated line. Finally, they can record video documents for the reconstruction of past processes.
Camera technology depends on several parameters, such as the nature of the video sensor (CMOS, CCD, et al.), the wavelengths used (infrared, visible, or other) and the shooting speed (high-speed camera).
To determine which type of camera to use one must define application parameters. Thus, if shooting is to take place in the dark, an infrared camera is necessary. If shooting must decompose rapid movement, a high-speed camera (>1000 images/second) is necessary. If precise recognition is required, high-definition resolution is recommended (megapixels).
