5 MP SPI Camera Module With M12 Lens

Capture stunning images and high-quality video with this SPI camera module. This versatile camera module is designed to meet the demands of both hobbyists and professionals, offering a remarkable combination of features that make photography and imaging projects a breeze. This camera module boasts a 5-megapixel sensor that delivers crisp and detailed images, and built-in high-level commands right into the module, making it as user-friendly as a DSLR camera.

It features quick response times, with a wake-up speed as fast as 94ms, and boasts power-saving capabilities, with consumption as low as under 200mw. This ensures that your projects run efficiently and last longer on a single charge. It is designed to work seamlessly with a wide range of microcontrollers that support the standard SPI interface. It’s the perfect fit for your existing projects, whether you’re using

Arduino

,

Raspberry Pi

,

ESP32

, or any other microcontroller platform.

Upgrade your imaging projects with the 5MP SPI Camera Module and experience the convenience of DSLR-like controls, quick response times, and exceptional image quality.

Features

• Extremely easy to use. High-level commands were built in so you manipulate the camera through API access like using a DSLR camera via button clicks.
• Replaceable Lens: Equipped with an alternative M12 Lens with 75-degree HFOV. You can change to another M12 Lens that suits the default Lens Mount.
• Multiplexing: Up to 4 cameras running on a single MCU by using an adapter board. They capture at the same time with sequential readout.
• Open Source SDK: The SDK is fully open-source with an MIT license. A lean architecture with a hardware abstraction layer, enabling you to add a new MCU without effort.
• One Fits All: It fits any microcontroller with a single standard SPI interface (either native or mimic). 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit, ARM, RISC-V, or others. Arduino, STM8/STM32, ESP8266/ESP32, MSP430, Nordic, Renesas, and countless more.
