This camera module integrates the OmniVision OV5640, a high-performance 1/4-inch CMOS image sensor, into a compact USB 2.0 form factor. The sensor utilizes OmniBSI™ backside illumination technology for enhanced light sensitivity and image quality, capable of operating at up to 15 fps at full 5MP resolution. All image processing functions—including exposure, white balance, and noise reduction—are programmable through the Serial Camera Control Bus (SCCB) interface.
The module features a fixed-focus lens with a 68-degree field of view, an F2.8 aperture, and minimal distortion. Its native USB video class (UVC) compliance allows for immediate recognition and streaming on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS systems without custom drivers, making it an ideal off-the-shelf vision sensor for prototyping and deployment in IoT and edge AI applications.
