The ultra low light image sensor can receive more light in extremely low light conditions, making it widely applicable to special lighting projects such as astrophotography. This camera is based on the SONY IMX462 STARVIS ultra low light image sensor. The sensor has very high performance for better image quality in low-light environments.
The camera is equipped with a 141.4°(HFOV) wide-angle M12 Lens. A manual focus camera allows you to use it in situations such as macro photographs, low light conditions, etc. Meanwhile, this camera is fully supported by libcamera and Picamera2 library.
Arducam is committed to creating diverse and convenient camera solutions for embedded camera users. We are not only engaged in the production and development of optical products, but also strive to provide complete solutions for embedded cameras, optical components, etc.
Applications
Astrophotography
Surveillance cameras
FA cameras
Industrial/Agricultural cameras
