High Quality Camera for Raspberry Pi / Raspberry Pi Compute Module / Jetson Nano / RDK Series, 12.3MP IMX477 Sensor, High Sensitivity, Supports C- and CS-mount Lenses
High Quality 12.3MP Camera
High Resolution High Sensitivity IMX477 Sensor
Supports Raspberry Pi / Jetson Series / RDK Series Boards
The IMX477 12.3MP Camera is a high quality camera module which adopts the IMX477R sensor, and requires a C- or CS-mount lens to work. It is compatible with Raspberry Pi Compute Module and NVIDIA Jetson Nano, offers higher resolution (12.3MP) and higher sensitivity (nearly 50% greater area per pixel for improved low-light performance) than IMX219 cameras.
The IMX477 12.3MP Camera is suitable for industrial and consumer applications like security camera, and other specialist optical devices which require higher level of visual fidelity.
