Abstract
Video techniques, which provide high sensitivity, portability, moderate spatial resolution and excellent temporal resolution promise to be one of the most valuable methods for study of the forthcoming Leonid storm(s). While an unintensified video camera will detect very bright meteors (typically about 0 magnitude), some sort of image intensifier is needed to attain high meteor rates. Most current systems use a second or third generation microchannel plate (MCP) image intensifier lens or fibre-optically coupled to a charge coupled device (CCD) video detector.
