For OR documentation, teaching, and review

Stable external surgical field imaging for long procedures and team communication.

A surgical field camera is selected not just because it can record video. It is selected because the camera position, optical zoom, output interface, and control method need to fit the operating room workflow. This page is written for hospitals, distributors, and OR integration partners evaluating a dedicated 4K surgical field visualization product.

  • 4K surgical field visualization
  • 20× optical zoom
  • HDMI output for display or recording
  • RS485 / Sony VISCA control
  • Fixed or semi-permanent OR installation
  • Documentation support for project evaluation

Why choose a surgical field camera

A wider, more stable view for OR display, teaching, and documentation.

Compared with handheld or operator-dependent recording, a fixed surgical field camera provides a more consistent external view. It is especially useful when the hospital needs a stable video source for display, recording, teaching, and post-case discussion.

  • Stable external surgical field overview
  • Better suited for long procedures and OR display
  • Integration-friendly output and control workflow

Applications

FAQ

Common questions before project discussion.

Is this camera intended for fixed OR installation?

Yes. It is positioned for fixed or semi-permanent operating room integration rather than consumer-style portable use.

Can it be integrated with an external recorder or OR display?

Yes. It is designed for integration with displays and recording systems used in operating room projects. Final compatibility should be confirmed according to the target display, recorder, cable plan, and control workflow.

Who is this product suitable for?

It is typically suitable for hospitals, distributors, and OR integration partners who need a stable external surgical field view for documentation, teaching, review, or project-based visualization.

Can cable length and mounting interface be customized?

Yes. Project-specific support is available for mounting compatibility, cable length, output method, and control workflow.

What is the default boom arm interface type?

The default boom arm interface type is Ondal 2000. The interface type and overall counterweight can be adjusted according to customer requirements.

Is this an operating room camera or a surgical head camera?

This product is a fixed or semi-permanent operating room surgical field camera. It is different from a head-mounted surgical camera, which records the surgeon’s first-person view.

Can it be used as a ceiling-mounted surgical camera?

Yes. It can be discussed for ceiling-mounted, boom-arm, or project-specific OR installation. The default interface is Ondal 2000, and interface or counterweight details can be adjusted by project.

Does it support 4K HDMI output for OR recording?

Yes. The system supports 4K surgical field imaging and typical HDMI output for OR display or recording systems. The final connection plan should be confirmed according to the recorder, display, and cable route.

What information should I provide for quotation?

Please share your country or region, hospital or company name, project type, quantity, expected mounting interface, output method, control workflow, and whether you need brochure, datasheet, manual, or a project quotation.

What is the typical production lead time?

For orders below 10 units, the typical production lead time is about 2 weeks. For orders above 10 units, the lead time should be discussed according to the exact quantity and project requirements.
