Videotec announces buy-out

November 2000 Surveillance

With CCTV becoming increasingly affordable, even to the smaller operator, more and more employers are turning to this means of protecting their goods and property. Furthermore, according to Sesco Security, the widespread use of covert cameras in retail stores, factories, warehouses, hotels, etc, is now commonplace, reducing both employee and customer theft. As a result, the company supplies a range of covert cameras to suit most of the needs within the industry.

Pinhole cameras

The 8129Z (Figure 1) and 8086Z (Figure 2) are 1/3" CCD pinhole cameras (colour and black and white respectively) which can be fitted into clocks, radios, ornaments, PIR detectors, etc. Fitted with high-quality image sensors, they feature back-light compensation, high image resolution, auto electronic shutter and a built-in f3.6 board lens.
