## Description

This compact USB camera module is built around the Sony IMX179 image sensor, giving embedded projects an 8MP imaging option with autofocus and a USB connection. It is designed for use with platforms such as Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson, LattePanda, RDK X5 and PCs.The module uses the USB Video Class (UVC) protocol, so it can work as a plug-and-play camera without special drivers on supported operating systems. It supports high-resolution stills and video, including 1080p at 30 FPS, making it useful for machine vision, security cameras, document and PCB scanning, streaming rigs, kiosks and interactive installations.Autofocus helps keep subjects sharp as the working distance changes, from close-up use through to infinity. DFRobot also references GitHub documentation for this module, and the shipping list includes the IMX179 USB 8MP Camera Module and a USB cable.Features:High-Fidelity 8MP Imaging: Powered by a 1/3.2-inch Sony IMX179 sensor for detailed 8 megapixel capture.Dynamic and Responsive Autofocus: Automatically adjusts the lens for subjects from 10cm to infinity.Seamless Plug-and-Play Integration: UVC compliant for driver-free operation on supported systems.Embedded platform support: Works with Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson, LattePanda, RDK X5 and PCs.Flexible output formats: Supports MJPEG and YUY2.High-definition video: Supports a maximum resolution of 3280×2464 and 30 FPS at 1080p.USB connection: Uses a standard USB 2.0 Type-A connection for simple integration.Specifications:Image Sensor Size: 1/3.2 inchActive Pixels: 3280*2464Pixel Size: 1.4μm * 1.4μmData Output Type: Raw Data 10bitsOutput Format: MJPEG, YUY2Supported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 3264*2448 @15FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 2592*1944 @15FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 1600*1200 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 1920*1080 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 1280*720 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 960*540 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 848*480 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 640*480 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 640*360 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 424*240 @30FPSSupported Resolutions & Frame Rates (MJPEG): 320*180 @30FPSSignal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR): TBDDynamic Range (DR): TBDMinimum Illumination: TBDConnection Interface: 1.0 / 5PIN / USB 2.0 Type-ACable Length: 1.5 metersInterface Speed: Max 480 MbpsPower Supply: 5V ±5%Storage Temperature: -40℃ ~ 70℃Operating Temperature: -30℃ ~ 60℃Supported Systems: Windows XP / Vista / 7 / 8.1 / 10 / Mac OS / Android / Linux 2.6.2+ (Includes UVC compliance)Effective Focal Length: 3.5mm ±5%F/NO (Aperture): F2.2 ±5%FOV (Field of View) Angle: D:72°±3°Distortion: < -0.5%Lens Construction: 5P (5 Plastic Elements)Default Lens Mount: M6*P0.25Focus Mode: AutofocusShooting Distance: 10cm - ∞ (Infinity)Shipping list: IMX179 USB 8MP Camera Module ×1; 1m USB Cable × 1.
