Can anyone tell what this camera was used for?

I found on the local recycling center this camera. It works. But I can't tell what it was used for. The enclosure is made by heavy (non magnetic metal). I couldn't find anything with a quick internet search.

Possibly a machine vision camera for parst inspection or manipulation of some kind. Hard to say anything more and even that could be totally off.

Its a CCU, Camera controll unit, for surveillance cameras, this one has a camera attached directly, a typical OEM unit.. probebly from some medical equipment. seen units like this in xray , MR machines..
A tip is to check the lens of the camera, to see what distance with it covers.
