The 5MP Raspberry Pi Camera Module V1.3 is a compact camera board designed specifically for Raspberry Pi single-board computers. It uses the OmniVision OV5647 image sensor capable of capturing high-resolution images and HD video. The module connects directly to the Raspberry Pi through the 15-pin CSI (Camera Serial Interface) using a ribbon cable, allowing high-speed data transfer. It is widely used for robot vision, surveillance systems, IoT monitoring, and computer vision projects.
