8-megapixel NoIR camera board for Raspberry Pi

This camera module captures 3280 x 2464 pixel still images and records video at 1080p30, 720p60 or 640x480p90. The fixed-focus lens and missing infrared filter make it suitable for low-light or night-vision projects using external IR illumination. Daylight images will show unusual colour shifts because the IR cut filter is absent.

Check CSI connector and ribbon length before

The board connects to a Raspberry Pi via the supplied short ribbon cable using the CSI camera interface. Verify that your Pi model has a compatible CSI port and that the cable reach fits your enclosure or mounting plan. The module measures 25mm x 23mm x 9mm, so confirm physical clearance around the connector.

Lightweight board with supplied ribbon cable

Weighing just over 3g, the module adds minimal mass to a robot, drone or handheld device. The short ribbon cable keeps the camera close to the host board, which reduces cable clutter but limits placement flexibility. No infrared filter means you must provide your own IR light source for night vision; otherwise the sensor behaves like a standard visible-light camera with altered colours.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need anything else to start using the NoIR Camera V2?

The board ships with a short ribbon cable for direct connection to a Raspberry Pi; no extra accessories are required to begin capturing images or video.

Which resolution and frame-rate combination should I pick for my project?

Choose 3280 x 2464 for maximum detail stills, 1080p at 30 fps for standard full-HD video, 720p at 60 fps for smoother motion, or 640 x 480 at 90 fps when high-speed capture is needed.

How does the missing infrared filter change what the camera sees in practice?

Without the IR filter the sensor records near-infrared light, so daylight photos take on unusual colours while infrared illumination lets the camera capture clear images in complete darkness.
