RPi NoIR Camera

The Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Board
The Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Module is a 5 megapixel custom designed add-on for Raspberry Pi, featuring a fixed focus lens. It's capable of 2592 x 1944 pixel static images, and also supports 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p60/90 video. It attaches to Pi by way of one of the small sockets on the board upper surface and uses the dedicated CSi interface, designed especially for interfacing to cameras.

• 5 megapixel native resolution sensor-capable of 2592 x 1944 pixel static images
• Supports 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p60/90 video
• Camera is supported in the latest version of Raspbian, Raspberry Pi's preferred operating system

The board itself is tiny, at around 25mm x 20mm x 9mm. It also weighs just over 3g, making it perfect for mobile or other applications where size and weight are important. It connects to Raspberry Pi by way of a short ribbon cable.
The sensor itself has a native resolution of 5 megapixel, and has a fixed focus lens on-board. In terms of still images, the camera is capable of 2592 x 1944 pixel static images, and also supports 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p60/90 video.
The Pi NoIR camera board has no Infrared filter making it perfect for taking Infrared photographs or photographing objects in low light (twilight) conditions.

• 1.4 µm X 1.4 µm pixel with OmniBSI technology for high performance (high sensitivity, low crosstalk, low noise)
• optical size of 1/4"
• automatic image control functions:
  • - automatic exposure control (AEC)
  • - automatic white balance (AWB)
  • - automatic band filter (ABF)
  • - automatic 50/60 Hz luminace detection
  • - automatic black level calibration (ABLC)
• programmable controls for frame rate , AEC/AGC 16-zone size/position/weight control, mirror and flip, cropping, windowing, and panning
• digital video port (DVP) parallel output interface

• 32 bytes of embedded one-time programmable (OTP) memory
