ArduCam has developed a brand new 64-megapixel, high-resolution digital camera that works with the Raspberry Pi, giving DIY digital camera builders much more inventive flexibility.
In response to the ArduCam, the brand new 64-megapixel digital camera for the Raspberry Pi Techniques could have steady autofocus with “DSLR-like” focus management and as much as 10x digital zoom functionality for tremendous close-up views. The brand new characteristic is designed to permit customers to zoom in and transfer up/down/left/proper to decide on something within the body, set or regulate the main focus, after which take a photograph.
The brand new digital camera makes use of the identical software program (libcamera) and is identical dimension because the Raspicam V2.1 which implies it may possibly simply match into any present setups and enclosures already in use with V1 or V2 fashions. The digital camera itself is able to capturing stills at 9152×6944 pixels and video in a wide range of sizes and codecs. On a Raspberry Pi it may possibly supply 1080p30, 720p60, and 640x480p60/90, and when used as a digital camera module it may possibly seize 1280×720 at 120fps, 1920×1080 at 60fps, in addition to a number of different outputs as much as 9152×6944 at 2.7 frames per second.
The ArduCam will also be arrange as a multiplex system of 4 64-megapixel cameras operated by a single Pi which permits customers to take full-resolution pictures and swap between cameras to create depth mapping the place all 4 cameras work in correct synchronization. This will also be used to seize a scene with all 4 cameras collectively making a mixed view.
In response to the technical specs, the brand new digital camera makes use of a Quad Bayer Coding (QBC) coloration filter with an 84-degree subject of view on a 5.1mm focal size and an aperture of f/1.8. The system has a minimal focus distance of eight centimeters and helps full decision on Pi 4B/CM4 and “Superpixel Decision” (16-megapixels) on Pi 2/3/CM3/Zero W/ Zero 2W.
Under are some pattern pictures taken with the 64-megapixel ArduCam:
The ArduCam 64MP system is offered for buy by the ArduCam web site for $36 (which on the time of publication was discounted from its $60 full worth) by itself, or in bundles as much as $194 (once more discounted from the $298 full worth) for a quad-camera equipment.
