I am looking for a waterproof usb camera, basically a webcam that is waterproof, my sound strange but I use it and a tablet on my tractor when doing things where I have to constantly look back so that I can keep a closer eye on things and to save my neck from kinking up so bad. Currently I am just using a standard webcam which amazingly survived the winter being attached to the tractor and months of rain and still works!! but it's not a permanant solution I want something I don't have to worry about breaking but it seems to be harder to find that I expected, any idea? thanks!

I don't know of any waterproof webcams that exist, so my best suggestion to you would be to get an acrylic box like this one and glue the camera into that, with a small hole for routing the cable.  

Main PC:

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X • Noctua NH-D15 • MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk • 2x8GB G.skill Trident Z Neo 3600MHz CL16 • MSI VENTUS 3X GeForce RTX 3070 OC • Samsung 970 Evo 1TB • Samsung 860 Evo 1TB • Cosair iCUE 465X RGB • Corsair RMx 750W (White)

 

Peripherals/Other:

ASUS VG27AQ • G PRO K/DA • G502 Hero K/DA • G733 K/DA • G840 K/DA • Oculus Quest 2 • Nintendo Switch (Rev. 2)

 

Laptop (Dell XPS 13):

Intel Core i7-1195G7 • Intel Iris Xe Graphics • 16GB LPDDR4x 4267MHz • 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD • 13.4" OLED 3.5K InfinityEdge Display (3456x2160, 400nit, touch). 

 

Got any questions about my system or peripherals? Feel free to tag me (@bellabichon) and I'll be happy to give you my two cents. 

 

PSA: Posting a PCPartPicker list with no explanation isn't helpful for first-time builders :)
