A 12.3 MP wide-angle camera module for Raspberry Pi featuring the Sony IMX378 sensor and a 190° fisheye lens. It captures high-definition images at 4056×3040 resolution, making it ideal for 360-degree panoramic views, surveillance systems, robotics, and virtual reality applications.

The module connects directly to the Raspberry Pi CSI port and includes two FPC cables (15-pin to 15-pin for Pi 4B, and 15-pin to 22-pin for Pi 5) for plug-and-play setup with no additional hardware required.
