The Fraunhofer Institute has announced its invention of the
MicroHDTV Camera, a tiny high definition camera that comes equipped with
features on par with many full-sized HDTV cameras. The camera measures 4 x 4 x 8
cm, or 1.6 x 1.6 x 3.1 inches and its format consists of 1920 x 1080 pixels and
a variable frame rate of up to 60 frames per second.
The German scientific institute states the camera is ideal
for racecar mounts and hard to reach places. You can see it at
NAB 2007 this month in Las
Vegas.
