Arducam Mega 5MP Rolling Shutter camera is the latest product developed by Arducam Team. The Ultra High Stability&Accuracy and Open Source API of this camera can realize your project more effectively. Arducam team is committed to creating more convenient and more efficient camera solutions. We have expanded the using scope of the image sensor, enabling the camera to realize your various projects. The camera is featured Low Power Consumption and Super Sharp Image. Different from the Standard Mega 5MP Camera, we equip the camera with a Low Distortion M12 Lens (TV Distortion<1.53%).
Applications
Assets Monitoring
Space Journey
Environmental Observation
Dynamics Capture
loT Automation
Features
Easy Using: 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.
Low Distortion M12 Lens: Equipped with an Low Distortion M12 Lens with 75-degree HFOV by default.
Multiplexing: Up to 4 cameras running on a single MCU by using an adapter board. They capture at the same time with sequential readout then.
Open Source SDK: The SDK is fully open-source with MIT license. A lean architecture with a hardware abstraction layer, enabling 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.

Note
The package contains small contents, please keep it away from children to avoid accidental ingestion
After receiving the package, please confirm whether the contents of the package are consistent with the description.
No MCU board (Arduino, STM8/STM32, ESP8266/ESP32, Rpi Pico, etc) is included in the package
Arducam Mega Camera can be used on any Microcontroller board, but note that you will need the corresponding code and software to use it, please refer to the following documentation for details.
To protect the optimized focus achieved at the factory, the lens is fixed with adhesive. If you need to install a different M12 lens, please remove the existing adhesive first to avoid damage to the module.
If off-the-shelf solutions don't meet your needs, Arducam offers end-to-end custom camera design services to help
you turn your ideas into real products. From early concept to mass production, we work closely with you to
tailor an imaging solution to meet your unique technical requirements and product goals.
What can Arducam customize?
Sensor/Lens/circuit/interface;
Optical filter/housing/ISP, and more.
