Component Description
Ultra‑High‑Resolution Raspberry Pi Camera Module – 1080p 30 fps Video & 8‑MP Still Capture
The Raspberry Pi Camera Module is a compact, low‑power imaging solution designed for the Raspberry Pi family. Equipped with a Sony IMX219 5‑megapixel sensor and a fixed‑focus 3.6‑mm lens, it delivers sharp 1920×1080 video at 30 frames per second and still images up to 2592×1944 pixels. The MIPI‑CSI interface ensures high‑bandwidth transfer to the Pi’s processor, making it ideal for embedded vision projects, robotics, and edge‑AI applications that demand high‑resolution input.
Its plug‑and‑play nature, along with support for hardware‑accelerated video codecs, allows developers to quickly prototype advanced imaging systems—such as depth estimation, object tracking, and real‑time analytics—without the need for dedicated camera subsystems. The module operates within 1.8 V–3.3 V power limits and consumes under 70 mA, thus fitting comfortably into the Pi’s power budget.
- Key Spec 1: 5 MP Sony IMX219 CMOS sensor, 2592×1944 pixels, 1‑inch progressive scan
- Key Spec 2: 3.6‑mm focal‑length lens, 135° field of view, fixed focus (≈3 cm‑∞)
- Key Spec 3: MIPI‑CSI interface, 1.5 Gbps burst throughput, 1080p30 video, 8‑bit 8×8 shutter thread
- Common Use Case: Real‑time computer vision and video analytics in robotics, autonomous drones, and interactive media projects
