Arducam New 2MP Mini SPI Camera Module for Arduino UNO, Raspberry Pi Pico and other MCU

Overview

Arducam New 2MP Mini SPI Camera is a new generation high-definition 2MP SPI camera, which reduces the complexity of the camera control interface. It integrates 2MP CMOS image sensor and provides miniature size, as well as an easy-to-use hardware interface and open source code library. The Arducam Mini SPI Camera series can be used on any platform like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Maple, STM32, ESP32, or Beaglebone black, as long as they have SPI and I2C interface. Arducam Mini SPI Camera not only offers the capability to add a camera interface that doesn’t have in some low-cost microcontrollers but also provides the capability to add multiple cameras to a single microcontroller. Beyond the Hardware, Arducam offers a wealth of customization options such as resolution, frame rate, ROI, exposure time, and lens selection,etc., covering application areas like IoT, machine vision assistance, and field monitoring.
