Digital video camera

This is a digital video camera designed with a specific cooling system. It uses a centrifugal fan that pulls air in from the front and pushes it out sideways, directing the airflow over heat sinks connected to the camera's image sensor and its processing unit to keep them cool. The air then exits the camera housing.

Why it matters: Since 2019, digital video cameras have seen significant increases in resolution and on-board processing power, leading to greater heat generation from image sensors and data processing units. This specific centrifugal fan and directed airflow system could offer a more efficient or compact cooling solution now, addressing the intensified thermal challenges in modern camera designs.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateImage sensor, data processing unit, custom airflow design.
