Overview
The Official Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Module V2 gives your micro-computer the power of night vision. By omitting the standard infrared-cut filter from the high-fidelity Sony IMX219 8-megapixel sensor, this board natively captures near-infrared light (850 nm to 940 nm). It connects seamlessly via the high-speed, native CSI (Camera Serial Interface) bus. Whether you are building an automated security system or an infrared plant-health monitoring rig, this official V2 board delivers high-contrast imagery with minimal CPU overhead.
Key Features
Infrared Sensitivity: Lacks an IR-cut filter, making it uniquely capable of full night vision when illuminated by cheap external IR LEDs.
Premium Sony IMX219 Core: Experience crisp details, wider dynamic range, and vastly reduced sensor noise compared to generic 5MP night-vision clones.
8-Megapixel High Definition: Shoot beautiful $3280 \times 2464$ pixel security photographs or monitor laboratory environments smoothly.
High-Framerate Video Support: Stream fluent 1080p video at 30fps, or dial down the resolution up to 90fps for high-speed tracking in the dark.
Natively Supported: Fully compatible with modern
libcameraarchitecture and security operating systems like MotionEyeOS.
