The same 12MP High Quality Camera, but with smarter focus control – No more hand touching.
- The intuitive focus control: Fine-tune the focus with keyboard arrow keys.
- The automated focus control: Autofocus with OpenCV examples
Focus motor controlled via camera I2C. No hardware modification required.
Note: For the new version(R32 4.4), please refer to the following link: https://github.com/ArduCAM/MIPI_Camera/releases/tag/v0.0.2
Overview
This Arducam High Quality motorized focus camera module integrates a motor that could be controlled by software for a smarter focus, and you will no longer focus the camera by screwing the lens with your bare hands. Instead, keyboard keys or OpenCV can be used to remotely control the focusing process of your HQ camera. Other than its motorized focus, it offers the same picture quality and camera controls as the Raspberry Pi High Quality camera. However, the Arducam High Quality Camera Modules do not require any hardware modifications to work with the and Jetson Nano/Xavier NX Platform.
Currently, NVIDIA official has released the NVIDIA Jetson Orin series developer board. Based on it, we have also adapted the camera into NVIDIA Jetson Orin kernel.
Note: This camera is released for the official NVIDIA® Jetson™ Developer Kit, and it does not guarantee to support other third-party boards.
★KERNEL CAMERA DRIVER USED
This camera relies on kernel drivers to work – one kernel version, one camera driver. Please refer to the Supported JetPack Version for Different NVIDIA Jetson Platforms to ensure compatibility.
★ SUPPORTED PLATFORM DISCLAIMER
This camera is specifically designed for the official NVIDIA® Jetson™ Developer Kit by default and does not support third-party carrier boards.
★ADDITIONAL ACCESSORY INSTRUCTIONS
The 22-22pin FFC Cable is included in the package. But please note that: If you are using an AGX Orin, an additional camera adapter (B0473) is also required.

Software-Controlled Focus on 12MP IMX477 High Quality Camera: Keyboard Focus Control or Even Autofocus
With a software-controlled focus motor in the lens assembly, Arducam uses OpenCV to automate the focus process on a 12MP IMX477 High Quality Camera on the Raspberry Pi. This is how that looks like. This is specifically about the autofocus HQ camera. If you are interested in the general autofocus topic on Raspberry Pi, we […]
