You will note that the CIF Single Chip Camera is a type of webcam or PC camera that uses a single imaging chip. It uses this single chip to capture both video and still images. These were very popular 20 years ago and still today. The CIF stands for Common Intermediate Format. This CIF camera has a resolution standard of 352 x 288 pixels. This type of cameras were the first to be used for video conferencing in the early 2000’s. See also the Sunplus 32-bit Compressor as well as the ffdshow.

The cameras typically came with a USB interface cand cable. The single-chip design made it a cost-effective as well as a very compact solution for video capture. Its simplicity eliminated the need for multiple imaging components in the camera. This reduced the costs and everyone could afford one. The resolution was very low and the image quality was very grainy.
