Product Review
You can read our GitHub page for more details about the Arducam MIPI Camera project: github.com/ArduCAM/MIPI_Camera/tree/master/RPI
The Arducam 13MP MIPI camera module is mainly designed for Raspberry pi boards and it can be connected directly to RPi's CSI-2 camera interface without additional hardware. This camera is based on 1/3 inch Sony IMX135 image sensor which adopts Exmor-R technology to achieve high speed image capturing with high sensitivity and low noise performance. "RGBW coding" color filter is employed and RGB primary color mosaic is reproduced on chip. High sensitivity, low dark current and smear-free features are achieved. It equips an electronic shutter with variable integration time.
This MIPI camera module can be used on other ARM, FPGA, DSP, or Nvidia TX1/TX2 hardware platform as well.
