That exists, but AFAIK the list drops down to nothing again if you add:
1. manufacturers don't actively support genocide (rules out anything involving Dahua, Hikvision, Huawei, as IPVM has described extensively), are allowed in the US (look up the Secure Equipment Act of 2021)
2. has a nice large sensor (the 1/1.8" models are great, but see point 1)
3. supports open source firmware (none of them do AFAIK)
4. reasonably affordable (surprisingly, this part is not the biggest problem)
5. nice-to-have: has an NPU for on-camera analytics (there are cameras with this but mostly from the genocidal manufacturers...)
The best I've got is GeoVision. No open-source firmware, sensors aren't as large as I'd like, no NPU, but relatively decent otherwise. https://github.com/scottlamb/moonfire-nvr/wiki/Cameras:-Geovision https://github.com/scottlamb/moonfire-nvr/wiki/Cameras:-Geov...
edit: actually, some of these 6MP Hanwha cameras look promising. Several say they have 1/1.8" sensors. Not cheap though, and no eyeball/turret form factor.
