Video camera

high rate scanning

Consumer electronics; Video camera

Capability of a camera to output less than its maximum number of horizontal lines, but at a higher rate. Unlike partial scanning, the lines output in high rate scanning are symmetrical about the ...

Number of equally spaced vertical black-to-white or white-to-black transitions that the camera is able to reproduce, divided by the aspect ratio (usually 4:3) to make a comparison between horizontal ...

horizontal drive (HD)

Consumer electronics; Video camera

Signal used to synchronize the line scan rate of the camera to an external source. Mostly used in B/W applications together with VD.

hyper HAD

Consumer electronics; Video camera

A derivative of the HAD sensor that incorporates microscopic lenses mounted over each sensing pixel. Hyper HAD sensors have no perceptible smear and are nearly twice as sensitive as HAD sensors.

IR cut removable (ICR)

Consumer electronics; Video camera

This function is useful in low light environments. With the IR cut filter removed, the sensitivity of the camera to IR illumination is increased.

IEEE 1394

Consumer electronics; Video camera

A digital networked serial interface for high-speed data transmission. Available speeds are 200 and 400 Mb/s, and 800 Mb/s speed is planned in the near future. IEEE 1394 is an ideal interface between ...

interlaced scanning

Consumer electronics; Video camera

Scanning method in which half of the lines are scanned in one field (odd-numbered lines), and the other half are scanned in the next field (even-numbered lines). Thus adjacent lines of a complete ...
