Product information "Raspberry Pi Camera Module 8MP v2"

The Raspberry Pi HD (High Definition) camera board can be connected to any Raspberry Pi or computing module, allowing you to create HD videos and still photos.
It utilises Sony's IMX219PQ image sensor, which provides high-speed and high-sensitivity video recording.
The Raspberry Pi camera module ensures reduced image contamination such as fly screen effect and smearing. It also has automatic control functions such as exposure control, white balance and luminance detection.

Features and benefits:

High quality images
High data capacity
8 megapixel fixed focus
Supports 1080p, 720p60 and VGA90
Sony IMX219PQ CMOS image sensor
15-pin ribbon cable

Connecting the camera module to the Pi:
A 15 cm ribbon cable on the module is plugged directly into the serial interface connector (CSI) of your Pi camera. As soon as the connection is established, you can access the camera board via the MMAL (Multi-Media Abstraction Layer) or the V4L API (Video for Linux). Alternatively, there are libraries such as Picamera Python and many others that you can find online.

Product applications:
The Raspberry Pi camera module is ideal for HD video and still photography. You can also try out time-lapse and slow motion.
Other applications include botany, wildlife observation and home security.

Raspberry Pi Foundation

Raspberry Pi: A real success story

Hardly any of the developers of the Raspberry Pi would have guessed at the beginning what gigantic popularity their mini computer would one day enjoy. The original motivation of the creators was to counteract the declining number of computer science students at Cambridge University. The previous knowledge among the decreasing number of first-year students was also decreasing noticeably. The remedy was to be a computer that was easy to use and as cheap as possible, with which programming could be learned in a playful way. According to the developers, young people interested in programming are reluctant to experiment with more expensive and complex home computers for fear of possible damage. In 2006, for example, a prototype was already produced with an Atmel ATmega644 microcontroller. However, the actual success story of the Raspberry Pi only began at the beginning of 2012, when the first official Raspberry Pi model came onto the market. By the end of 2019, around 30 million copies of the popular mini computer had been sold.

Raspberry Pi Foundation

Behind the success is, on the one hand, the Raspberry Pi Foundation, a British foundation that is also registered as a charity. The aim of the foundation, whose trustees to this day come at least in part from the Cambridge University environment, is to promote the study of computer science - at universities as well as at schools. Production and distribution of the hardware, on the other hand, is carried out by Raspberry Pi Trading, a company wholly owned by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The fact that the name "Raspberry" was ultimately chosen for the company is related to the trend in the IT industry at the time to name themselves after fruits - see Apple or Acorn. The suffix "Pi", on the other hand, stands for "Python interpreter" - a reference to the fact that the mini-computer was originally intended to be equipped with a built-in interpreter for the Python programming language. It is no coincidence that the Raspberry Pi is so popular because the compact single-board computer has many talents: on the one hand, it is suitable as an energy-saving desktop thanks to its 700 Mhz ARM CPU. But the Raspberry Pi is also suitable as an inexpensive media centre for the living room: thanks to its HDMI output and the XBMC interface, videos with 1080p resolution can be displayed on a screen as well as on a TV without any problems.

Tech projects with Raspberry Pi

Above all, however, the mini computer is extremely popular with tinkerers and programmers who like to experiment. A wide variety of tech projects can be carried out simply and easily with the help of the Raspberry Pi: For example, the mini computer can be used to create a game console, a robot or a weather station. Perhaps the most characteristic feature of the Raspberry Pi is its compactness: the dimensions of the small computer - depending on the model - are only up to 93.0 mm x 63.5 mm x 20.0 mm. At the same time, the powerful circuit board is only as big as a credit card. The Raspberry Pi is available in various versions and is constantly being optimised and re-released by its creators. At Berrybase, the in-house Raspberry Pi shop, you will not only find all Raspberry Pi models - you will also receive a huge range of Raspberry electronic products for countless areas of application - both from our own production and from established top brands. So nothing stands in the way of your next tech project!

super Preisleistungsverhältnis...

super Preisleistungsverhältnis, der Trick ist aber, mit der Software gstreamer die volle Leistung beim raspberry pi oder jetson nano bzw. jetson nx rauszuholen, da die Standardeinstellungen der bei den boards laufenden Systemsoftware zu unnötiger Langsamkeit, unnötigem Rauschen und unnötig geringem Kontrast und unnötig schlechter Farbsättigung führen (siehe jetson nx lesson 5 von Paul McWhorther auf youtube). Mit den richtigen Einstellungen von gstreamer sind die Bilder so gut wie von 30 Mal teureren Produkten.
