Overview
This Arducam IMX219 camera module is designed mainly for Raspberry Pi V2 camera board and NVIDIA Jetson Nano, replacing the default standard IMX219 camera module with the auto focus one. It can be used for drones, robots, action camera,s and 3D scanning applications. The highlight of this camera is that the lens focus is programmable by software, and Arducam team provides an open-source code to implement software auto-focus function for Jetson Nano.
