Abstract
A window for resistive heating and a camera apparatus including a window for resistive heating. The window includes a transparent member having an outer edge, wherein the transparent member is made of a first material, wherein the first material is a low conductivity material; and at least one set of two conductive pads disposed on the outer edge of the transparent member and electrically coupled to at least one source of electricity, wherein each conductive pad is made of a second material, wherein matter disposed on the transparent member is removed via resistive heating when electricity is conducted from the at least one source through the at least one set of two conductive pads and the transparent member.
