When you need to see more of the scene without sacrificing resolution, the 8MP IMX415 Wide Angle Camera Module delivers. With an ultra-wide 98°/94° field of view, true 4K video capability, and intelligent IR-CUT day/night switching, this module brings professional surveillance features to your Raspberry Pi and Jetson projects.
See the Bigger Picture
The ultra-wide 98°/94° field of view means you can monitor entire rooms, capture expansive outdoor scenes, or give your robot panoramic vision—all without needing multiple cameras. This wide coverage is perfect for security applications where comprehensive area monitoring is essential, or robotics projects where environmental awareness is critical.
True 4K Resolution
The Sony IMX415 sensor captures stunning 4K video at 3840×2160 resolution and 30fps, or you can switch to smooth 1080p at 60fps for applications requiring higher frame rates. This flexibility means you can prioritize resolution for detailed monitoring or frame rate for capturing fast motion—whatever your project demands.
Intelligent Day/Night Operation
The integrated IR-CUT filter automatically switches between day and night modes, ensuring optimal image quality in all lighting conditions. During the day, the IR-CUT filter blocks infrared light for accurate color reproduction. At night, it switches out to allow infrared light through, enabling clear imaging even in complete darkness when paired with IR illumination.
Manual Focus Control
The M12 lens mount with manual focus gives you precise control over image sharpness. Whether you're monitoring a specific distance or need to adjust focus for different scenarios, the manual focus mechanism lets you dial in exactly the image quality you need. This is particularly valuable for fixed installations where you can set focus once and maintain perfect clarity.
Professional Features, Maker-Friendly
Despite its professional-grade capabilities, the IMX415 module maintains the compact 25×24mm form factor and plug-and-play compatibility that makers expect. The 22-pin MIPI CSI-2 interface works seamlessly with both Raspberry Pi and NVIDIA Jetson platforms, while the 15cm flex cable provides installation flexibility.
Real-World Applications
Developers are deploying the IMX415 wide-angle module in diverse scenarios: home security systems monitoring entire rooms with a single camera, dashcams capturing wide road views for comprehensive recording, warehouse surveillance covering large floor areas, outdoor wildlife cameras observing broad habitats, robot navigation systems with panoramic environmental awareness, and smart home devices requiring wide-area monitoring. The combination of 4K resolution and ultra-wide FOV makes it exceptionally versatile.
Complete Surveillance Solution
At $29.99-$31.99, the IMX415 Wide Angle Camera Module offers professional surveillance capabilities at a maker-friendly price. You get Sony's 4K sensor, ultra-wide field of view, automatic IR-CUT day/night switching, manual focus control, and compatibility with both Raspberry Pi and Jetson platforms—everything you need for serious monitoring applications.
Why use multiple cameras when one wide-angle 4K module can see it all?
