The IndyCam was a small fixed-focus camera intended to sit on top of the monitor of SGI systems. SGI originally distributed it with the Indy workstation. It can also connect to the Indigo2 video option.
It was designed for videoconferencing, and thus optimized for the office landscape of bright, fluorescent lighting.
The IndyCam was superseded by the Moosecam, or 02cam.
The IndyCam enjoys continued use among a small group of SGI hobbyists, who enjoy pushing its limits, using modern image-processing tools to make up for the poor source material.
