This wide angle camera module for the Raspberry Pi uses the same IMX708 sensor and footprint as the official Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, however Arducan has given it a bit of a remix with USB-C UVC connection, a wide angle fixed focus lens and a built-in microphone!
The USB-C UVC connection means you can use this camera module as a USB webcam, with all the plug n' play convenience you expect. Use it on your Raspberry Pi, Windows machine, Linux, Mac and more! The module has a small built-in microphone as well, making this a great 'hacky' webcam alternative!
The wide-angle 102° (HFOV) fixed-focus lens offers an alternative to the autofocus on the RPi Camera Module 3, offering faster-focussing speed and a more stable image quality.
Compatible with All Platforms: Adopting UVC protocol, compatible with various platforms and operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and more
Plug and Play: Only the USB device driver needs to be installed, no additional drivers are needed depending on the platform. Just plug-and-play after the installation is completed.
High-Quality Images: Based on SONY 12MP IMX708 Image Sensor. Max Resolution: 4608×2592. The high resolution allows you to get sharper and more recognizable images at a greater distance.
Wide Angle: Equipped with a 102° Wide Angle Fixed Focus Lens. Wide-angle Lens allows you to use the camera to get a wider field of view, especially for wide-area projects.
Audio Function: We have equipped this USB camera kit with a microphone module that supports High-Quality audio input/output.
