Coral Camera (EOL)

5 MP, OV05645 camera module to enable vision use cases with the Edge TPU Dev Board and SOM

This 5 megapixel camera module is compatible with Coral Development Boards (Dev Board Mini, Dev Board 4 GB)

Important Update April 2023: the camera module is EOL and will not be continued to manufacture. We advise customers to use USB camera devices instead. Contact us for any questions you have for your existing projects.

The camera connects via the MIPI-CSI interface and allows you to easily add visual input to your machine learning models.

This camera has an autofocus feature (AFC) with a built-in AFC VCM driver. Autofocus can also be optionally disabled via software configuration.

While the Coral Dev Boards allow the connection of only one camera module, the Coral SoM provides the possibility to connect up to two camera modules (depending on your carrier board hardware design).

Important hint: this camera is not compatible with Raspberry Pi boards as it has a different connector!
