Frequently Asked Questions

How do I install and configure this Arducam module on my Raspberry Pi?

Installation requires both hardware and software setup. First, connect the module's 2-lane MIPI cable to the Raspberry Pi's CSI port. Then, you must install the specific Arducam Pivariety kernel driver from the official Arducam download link. After driver installation, you can access the camera using libcamera command-line tools or any libcamera-based application for capturing images and video streams.

Can I control the focus programmatically with this camera module?

Yes, the Arducam B0324 features a motorized focus mechanism that is fully programmable via software. You can send commands through the libcamera interface or custom scripts to adjust the focus distance dynamically. This is ideal for applications like machine vision where the subject distance may change, allowing for automated focus tuning without manual lens adjustment.

Is this camera compatible with NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Orin NX?

Yes, the module is compatible with NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Orin NX platforms, in addition to Raspberry Pi boards. You will need to ensure the correct MIPI CSI connector is available on your carrier board and install the appropriate Arducam-provided drivers and software stack for the Jetson ecosystem to enable the hardware ISP features and libcamera support.
