## Description

The Ultra High Stability and Accuracy and Open Source API allows for it to be integrated into almost any vision project. 
The camera has low power consumption and super sharp imagea. It is equiped with a NoIR M12 Lens.

### Applications

- Assets Monitoring
- Space Journey
- Environmental Observation
- Night Home Security System
- loT Automation
 
### Features

- Equipped with an alternative M12 Lens (NoIR) with 75-degree Horizontal FOV. Especially suitable for low-light environment applications, e.g., night/darkness vision.
- Extremely easy to use. High-level commands were built in so you manipulate the camera through API access like using a DSLR camera via button clicks.
- Up to 4 cameras running on a single MCU by using an adapter board. They capture at the same time with sequential readout then.
- The SDK is fully open-source with MIT license. A lean architecture with a hardware abstraction layer, enabling you to add a new MCU without effort.
