Шаблон:Infobox OS DigitaOS was a short lived digital camera operating system created by Flashpoint Technology and used on various Kodak, Pentax, and HP cameras in the late 1990s.[1][2][3] DigitaOS debuted with the Kodak DC220 on 20 May 1998,[4] and was released on a total of 11 camera models[5] before it was abandoned in 2001.[6] DigitaOS was notable for its ability to run third-party software,[7] a concept that was not again realized until the release of various Android based digital cameras in the early 2010s.[8][9]

DigitaOS applications were programmed either as JIT compiled scripts using "Digita Script",[10][11] or AOT compiled programs written in C[12] using an official SDK.[13] The operating system abstracted away most camera functionality and hardware platform differences, allowing software to be compatible with most DigitaOS cameras.[14] Additionally, DigitaOS handled the GUI presented to the user and basic camera functionality.[14]

Because of its ability to run third-party software, several games were ported to it. The most notable of these being DOOM[15] and MAME.[16]
