<p>A secure video camera device for reducing the risk of visual and audio eavesdropping has a video camera and an electromechanical shutter behind a transparent cover in a secured enclosure. The shutter optically obscures the camera lens when the device is in secure state. A visual indicator indicates when the device is in operational state. A switch controllable by the user, select the state of the device by concurrently disabling the camera turning off the visual indicator in a secure state; and setting said device in an operational state by concurrently enabling the camera and turning on said lighted indicator. The device has a built in, or auxiliary microphone, and audio outputs which are disabled in secure state of the device. The device is tempered proof by an anti-tempering circuitry.</p> |
