The Waveshare Fisheye Camera Module enhances Raspberry Pi projects with its wide-angle lens, offering a broader perspective for various applications.
For creators building surveillance systems, robotics, or environmental monitoring setups, this module captures more of the scene in a single frame, making it easier to detect motion or document wide areas without needing multiple cameras.
- 5-megapixel OV5647 sensor for clear 1080p resolution images and video.
- 160-degree diagonal field of view, wider than standard 72-degree cameras, ideal for expansive coverage.
- Adjustable focus distance to fine-tune for different project distances.
- Compact dimensions of 25mm x 24mm with 4 screw holes for secure mounting.
- Provides 3.3V power output and supports connecting a fill flash LED for better low-light performance.
- Compatible with all Raspberry Pi revisions, including Zero series (requires specific cable, sold separately).
This module fits well into DIY electronics and educational projects where a wider visual range is needed, helping users achieve more comprehensive data capture.
