Located in your office, it allows you to watch '''every camera feed present on the station's standard network'''. This includes wall-mounted cameras, [[cyborg]] cameras, and where an [[AI]] is present. There are some properties to be noted about cameras: | ||

Using a camera console allows you to spy others without their knowing of your presence. In addition, it's far safer than direct observation, and you're able to peer into areas you wouldn't be able to enter with your limited access.
