Zusammenfassung:The Brazilian Meteor Observation Network (BRAMON) is a TV meteor detection network that has been implemented in Brazil since 2014. The BRAMON data made it possible to determine the high-quality orbits of 630 sporadic meteors observed between 2014 and 2021. Using criteria from Jopek & Williams, we assign each of these meteors an asteroidal or cometary origin. Cometary type orbits correspond to slightly more than 60% of sporadic meteors of our sample, a similar percentage to that obtained from other meteor surveys when considering the same magnitude range.
