Arducam Mega 5MP SPI Camera Module – Autofocus

One camera for all! Arducam’s MEGA SPI cameras offer makers an easy-to-use, compact camera solution that works with any standard SPI interface, allowing use on most SBCs and microcontrollers (as long as they have SPI – most do!).

No memory is required for register settings or frame buffers, and they are fully compatible with 3.3 and 5V systems. High-level commands are built-in allowing you to manipulate the camera through API access like using a DSLR camera via button clicks. 

This is the autofocus version (we will also be stocking an M12 lens and a NOIR M12 lens option).

Features

• Extremely easy to use – High-level commands were built in so you manipulate the camera through API access like using a DSLR camera via button clicks.
• Programmable Autofocus – Equipped with an Autofocus Lens which can achieve autofocus at different distances. Suitable for the IoT activities.
• Multiplexing Made Easy – Up to 4 cameras running on a single MCU by using an adapter board. They capture at the same time with sequential readout.
• Open Source SDK: The SDK is fully open-source with lean architecture with a hardware abstraction layer, which allows you to add a new MCU without effort.
• One Fits All: It fits any microcontroller with a single standard SPI interface (either native or mimic). 8-bit, 16-bit or 32-bit, ARM, RISC-V, or others. Arduino, STM8/STM32, ESP8266/ESP32, MSP430, Nordic, Renesas, and countless more!
