Waveshare Raspberry Pi FPC Camera (B) for Raspberry Pi, OV5647 5MP

Description

The Waveshare Raspberry Pi FPC Camera (B) integrates a 5-megapixel OmniVision OV5647 CMOS sensor into a miniaturized module connected via a flexible flat cable (FPC). This design provides a reliable, low-profile vision solution for Raspberry Pi single-board computers, enabling high-definition image capture and video streaming for DIY electronics, robotics, and IoT monitoring systems.

Featuring a fixed-focus lens with an F2.4 aperture and a 72.9-degree horizontal field of view, the module delivers sharp imagery from 20cm to infinity. It outputs video streams at multiple resolutions, including 1080p at 30 fps and 720p at 60 fps, making it suitable for real-time applications. The camera is powered directly from the Raspberry Pi’s 3.3V GPIO rail, ensuring seamless integration without external power supplies.
