Abstract

A wireless camera surveillance system for an aircraft is disclosed. The overhead video system comprises a wireless camera surveillance unit; and at least one mounting rail detachably coupled to the wireless camera surveillance unit. The mounting rail provides structural support and electrical power to the wireless camera surveillance unit. A system in one embodiment may use mounting rails that double as power rails supplying power to the wireless camera surveillance unit. Control is accomplished over a wireless link. The power rail control may be accomplished remotely via a standard or solid state relay. Normal rail power for the rail mounted wireless surveillance camera system may come from the utility bus.
