Night vision camera module for Raspberry Pi – 70°

Light up the night with this night vision camera module with infra-red LEDs, for Raspberry Pi!

Available with ether a standard (70°) or a wide-angle (160°) lens, this camera has IR LEDs that allow the camera to see in the dark without producing visible light.

The camera itself has the same 5MP sensor as our other Pi Zero camera modules but it has a full-sized cable connector and two camera cables so you can easily attach it to either a Raspberry Pi Zero W or a full-sized Raspberry Pi. There's also a handy little lens cap to protect the lens when not in use.

Note that the infra-red LEDs on these camera modules generate around 1W of heat when in use, as they're pretty powerful to provide good illumination. If you're using the module in an enclosure, then ensure that there's adequate ventilation to keep the LEDs and your Raspberry Pi cool.
