I am looking for a camera to fit in a compact space with the following specifications for an aerospace manufacturing monitoring application:
IP65 or greater ingress protection
GIGE network connection
As small as possible, I'm talking Point Grey Flea 3 small
No IR or other auxiliary light is required
Color image
the higher the native resolution the better
I know a bunch about cameras but not a damn thing about security cameras, help please.
Another option is to build or adapt an existing IP65 enclosure for a tiny camera
This is not a security camera application, It will be hooked up to a monitor with 4 other cameras so the operator can see what the machine is doing without risking getting crushed by it.
A 50mm equivalent lens would be fine from the 35mm film world, no fisheye 180 degree lenses required.
