FAQ
650nm filter.
- Avoid touching the components on the PCB backside to prevent affecting electrical performance
- During use, the module heats up significantly and may feel hot, which is normal.
- If you are using Mac and Opencv, some parameter settings cannot be used, it is recommended to use Linux and V4L2 drivers.
