There are situations when designing your digital video security and surveillance system that you should consider using a high quality hidden camera. These cameras come in a variety of types, shapes, and sizes and connect to your system just like any other digital video security camera.
Today’s technology has allowed the digital video camera to be incredibly small and still produce a full-size high quality video image. Because of this, a high quality hidden camera can be disguised or concealed in just about any object. This is important when effective covert security and surveillance monitoring is required because the key to success is not being detected.

It seems as though there are almost as many high quality hidden camera models available as there are non-hidden models. As usage becomes more popular and demand increases, so does the variety of objects arrive on the market with these cameras embedded in them.
Most high quality hidden cameras use a 3.7 mm diameter lens and a 1/4″ or 1/3″ sensor. The sensor is what the lens focuses the light image on. It is also what is used to convert the light image into a potential electronic digital video image. There are two different sensors and every camera uses one; the Charged Coupled Device or CCD and the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor or CMOS.
The rest of the internal working parts of a high quality hidden camera are just electronics. “Just electronics” doesn’t mean to lessen the sophistication and power of the technology, rather electronic technology as exponentially increased in the past several years. “Just electronics” means to imply that although there is a lot of circuitry, it can be accomplished by using very small Integrate Chip (IC) chips in a small amount of space.
