High sensitivity day/night color backlight correction camera. Thermoelectric cooling used on the EM-CCD to reduce the effects of dark current noise along with a new digital signal processor. that provides digital noise reduction of the luminous signal yields sharp clear pictures with a high S/N ratio.
