Release Time
In 2016, the V2 camera (8MP IMX219) was out with upgrades in resolution and image quality.
Product Series
Since the release of IMX219, we have designed several versions with different features according to different needs: IR-CUT, Motorized Focus, PT&PTZ , M12/CS .
IR-CUT
Arducam 8MP IMX219 Motorized IR-CUT Camera Modules are designed for both daylight and night vision photography. The motorized IR cut filter can be switched ON/OFF automatically, and the infrared LEDs are automatically ON/OFF according to the light environment. The cameras in this serial are fully supported by all the Raspberry Pi board versions including Pi 4, Pi 3 and Pi Zero. They can be widely used in wildlife photography, agriculture NDVI applications and etc.
Motorized Focus
Arducam 8MP IMX219 Motorized Focus Camera Modules are designed for you to control the focus via software, so you can see closer and see where you want to see.
PT&PTZ
Arducam PT camera can move in two dimensions with 180 degrees horizontal and 145 degrees vertical movements. So it can be used to monitor places that should be covered by multiple ones commonly in the surveillance system.
