ArduCam Mega 5MP Color Camera Module

The Mega series of ArduCam contains the latest products. Thanks to the tremendous stability and accuracy and the open source API functions, project can be realized even more efficiently. The range of use of the image sensor has also been expanded. In addition, this camera was equipped with an autofocus lens, so projects can be realized at different distances without manual Focusing.

Application areas: Object monitoring, space travel, environmental monitoring, dynamic sensing, IoT Automation.

Features

• Easy operation: built-in high-level commands, the camera can be operated by API access through button clicks
• Programmable autofocus: equipped with autofocus lens, which can adjust autofocus at different distances. Suitable for IoT activities.
• Multiplexing: up to four cameras using a multi camera adapter board to one MCU. Simultaneous acquisition with sequential readout.
• Open Source SDK: fully open source with MIT license, a streamlined architecture with a hardware abstraction layer that allows a new MCU to be added
• One fits All: fits any microcontroller with a single standard SPI interface (native or mimic). 8bit, 16bit or 32bit, ARM, RISC-V or others. Arduino, STM8/STM32, ESP8266/ESP32, MSP430, Nordic, Renesas and others.
