Options shown above include cameras equipped with a C mount front plate as well as models with optional Power over Ethernet (PoE) for diverse application needs.
MIPI CSI-2 Cameras
The Imaging Source's 36S Series MIPI CSI-2 embedded cameras are fully compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5, featuring direct connection to its two 22-pin MIPI CSI-2 connectors. For compatibility with older models like the Raspberry Pi 4, which uses a 15-pin MIPI CSI-2 connector, our 36S Series cameras can be easily connected via a simple adapter cable.
The open-source libcamera software framework provides camera control and delivers optimal integration for the image sensor and Raspberry Pi's image signal processor (ISP).
Please note: libcamera and the open-source community support only selected sensors of the 36S cameras series. Refer to Raspberry Pi's README for more information.
The Imaging Source offers additional sensor integration for OEM and volume projects only.
