This morning while I was walking I discovered a camera on my Versa. Is it camera or other?

It's the light sensor. If you're screen brightness is on auto that's how it know what to set the brightness to. If you look at the top of a modern smart phone you will also see one there (it might look different but it's there).

It is actually a light sensor, when the fitbit is on auto brightness, it determines how bright the screen actually is.

Hello @Sriram004 and a warm welcome.  I can assure you that what you are seeing is the ambient light sensor.  Your Versa uses it to adjust the screen brightness, so you can read it in bright outside light, dim light and so on.

The company states it's a light sensor. Only issue I have with that answer is the sensor is partof the screen and my hotbox picked up a digital camera that appears to be coming from where a small lens on my devise. It took still shots every 5 to 10 mins and uploaded them to a url. The pixel is not that good. So not sure what it is for. Is it an area camera or just an trial and error thing?
