The cost of the Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) has been estimated through the costing model PCBPrice+.

The cost varies according to the used technology as well as the size of the board and of the panels on which

the boards will be laid-out.

Asian manufacturing costs have been used for these calculations.

The assembly steps of the Camera housing are listed

in this table.

For each operation, we have considered the time of

realization and quantified the manufacturing cost

depending on the country where the system is

manufactured.

XXX seconds are needed to assemble and test the

system.

We estimate the cost of these operations at xx.xx / $

xx.xx.
