About this item

The Arducam MEGA 3MP SPI Camera Module is a compact, high-resolution camera designed to work seamlessly with almost any microcontroller, regardless of processing power or memory constraints. Unlike traditional cameras that require complex drivers or large system resources, this module communicates via a simple SPI interface, making it ideal for embedded systems, IoT devices, and resource-limited platforms such as Arduino, ESP32, STM32, and more. Featuring a 3MP sensor (2048×1536) and an M12 mount lens, the Arducam MEGA delivers detailed still images with flexible optics. The interchangeable M12 lens allows users to customize their field of view, from wide-angle to telephoto, to suit specific application needs such as smart agriculture, security, machine vision, or DIY electronics. This camera operates fully independently of any operating system and does not require a video driver or external memory. It supports onboard image processing and buffer management, so the host microcontroller only needs to retrieve the final image. With its ease of use, powerful onboard capabilities, and wide hardware compatibility, the Arducam MEGA 3MP is the perfect solution for developers who need embedded vision without the complexity of full camera systems.
