I have a computer vision app that used to use analog NTSC cameras and a USB capture device. Availability of these items is shrinking and higher resolution would be much nicer, although not needed. I'm looking for the next setup that will last some time (best guess of course).
The connection has to be Camera -> USB or NIC. Have no room for extra cards.
The camera has to be pretty solid, there is quite a bit of vibration where it's mounted, yet it has to be cheap enough where a catastrophic machine failure that destroys the camera isn't horrible. Must have removable lens also. Camera must have a screw mount on bottom. Typical box camera setup.
As an example, I've used a normal CCTV analog camera and an EasyCAP (vid -> usb) and it works well, although the driver for the easy cap isn't the most reliable.
I've looked up HDSDI, HSCVI, etc.
Any suggestions?
