ArduCAM 2MP IMX291 Low Light 120° Wide Angle USB Camera - USB camera with 2MP IMX291 sensor

Description

The ArduCAM 2MP IMX291 module is a high-quality USB camera designed for low-light performance. Featuring a Sony IMX291 CMOS sensor, it offers high sensitivity and a wide dynamic range (80 dB), enabling image capture in minimal light conditions — as low as 0.001 Lux. The camera includes a built-in wide-angle M12 lens with a 120° field of view, making it ideal for surveillance systems, VR devices, dash cams, and industrial applications.

Thanks to its compact design and metal, waterproof enclosure, the camera is highly resistant to dust and moisture, making it suitable for harsh environments. It supports Full HD 1080p video at 30 fps, and features a built-in microphone for audio recording. As a UVC-compliant device, it requires no additional drivers—simply connect via USB to a computer running Windows, Linux, Android, or macOS. The camera works seamlessly with applications like AMCap for image and video capture. It’s an excellent choice for use in monitoring systems, industrial machinery cameras, or Lightburn-compatible devices.
