In one video, a first prototype developed for the Raspberry Pi camera is shown. You should have a resolution of 5 megapixels and can record video.
A camera that can be connected to the Raspberry Pi, is planned for some time. Now, a first prototype at the trade fair Electronica 2012 in Munich, has been shown. You should have a resolution of 5 megapixels.
The camera sensor is normally built into smartphones. Raspberry Pi on it is connected to the CSI interface. The camera is controlled via the I2C interface, which can be addressed, for example, about the custom Debian operating system. The prototype is still connected via a ribbon cable with the small circuit board.
Videos in H.264 format
The 5-megapixel sensor should be able to record 1080p video at up to 30 frames per second in H.264 format. The codec is built into the hardware of the Raspberry Pi, a paid license key is not required. The demo at the show recorded live images.
The prototype will soon go into production, the Raspberry Pi team writes on his website. First, it should be tested in a test lab. It should be ensured that the flat ribbon cable radiating no unauthorized electromagnetic waves.
Then a display
A sale is planned for next year. The camera will then cost less than $ 25. Then to another display are available for sale, at which the team is working.
In mid-October 2012, the Raspberry Pi Model B had appeared. Previously, there was the small board with only 256 MB of RAM. This, however, for many applications very tight thing that struck a negative in our test of the Raspberry Pi. Whether the doubling of memory are required for operation of the camera is not yet known.
