Bring high-resolution night vision and infrared imaging to your maker projects with the Official Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Module 3. Featuring a massive 12-megapixel Sony IMX708 sensor, this specialized variant lacks an infrared (IR) cut-off filter (NoIR = No Infrared). This allows the camera to “see” invisible infrared light, making it the premier choice for nocturnal wildlife tracking, security monitoring in pitch darkness, and scientific plant health analytics. Unlike legacy fixed-focus boards, it features a powered phase-detect autofocus (PDAF) system for pin-sharp imaging in any lighting environment.
Key Product Features
- Infrared & Night Vision Ready: Engineered without an IR filter, allowing the sensor to capture raw infrared illumination for surveillance or photography in absolute darkness.Â
- Powered Auto-Focus Lens: Equipped with an internal voice-coil actuator that moves the lens dynamically, giving you sharp images for objects ranging from 10cm away up to infinity.Â
- Massive 12MP Sony Sensor: Powered by the ultra-sensitive Sony IMX708 sensor core, providing enhanced low-light performance, minimized pixel noise, and a native 16:9 widescreen output format.Â
- High Dynamic Range (HDR) Support: Capable of merging multiple exposures simultaneously to balance harsh shadows and bright highlights perfectly.Â
- Modern Software Integration: Designed natively for the modern, high-performance
