A high-performance night vision camera module for Raspberry Pi, built around the Sony IMX327 STARVIS sensor. Designed for excellent low-light imaging without infrared fill light, this 2MP module delivers 1080p video at 30fps with built-in ISP, 2D/3D noise reduction, and anti-fog capabilities.
Connects to any Raspberry Pi via the standard CSI interface. The module supports adjustable brightness, contrast, sharpness, and saturation, with IR-CUT filter switching for day/night operation. Compatible with M12 and M16 lens mounts.

Resources
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- ISP
- An image signal processor is hardware that helps process raw camera data into usable images or video. It matters for vision projects because it can improve camera handling and reduce the processing load on the main CPU.
- MIPI
- MIPI is a high-speed display and camera interface often used inside phones, tablets, and embedded devices. It matters because raw MIPI displays usually need special driver hardware or software support, unlike plug-and-play HDMI screens.
