Cameras & Camera Modules 12MP Sony IMX500 Intelligent Vision Sensor 76-degree

Raspberry Pi AI Camera is based on the Sony IMX500 Intelligent Vision Sensor. The IMX500 sensor combines a 12-megapixel CMOS image sensor with onboard inferencing acceleration for a variety of common neural network models, enabling users to develop sophisticated vision-based AI applications without the need for a separate accelerator. The AI Camera transparently augments captured still images or video with tensor metadata, leaving the processor in the host Raspberry Pi free to perform other operations. Support for tensor metadata in the lib-camera, Picamera2 libraries, and the price-apps application suite makes it easy for beginners to use while offering advanced users unparalleled power and flexibility. The Raspberry Pi AI Camera is compatible with all Raspberry Pi computers. The PCB outline and mounting hole locations are identical to those of Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, while the overall depth is greater to accommodate the larger IMX500 sensor and optical subassembly.

Pose Estimation:

The Compute Module 3+ (CM3+) is a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ in a flexible form factor, intended for industrial applications.

The CM3+/32GB Compute Module contains the guts of a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (the BCM2837 processor and 1GB RAM) as well as an 32GB eMMC Flash device (which is the equivalent of the SD card in the Pi).

• Broadcom BCM2837B0, Cortex-A53 (ARMv8) 64-bit SoC @ 1.2GHz
• 1GB LPDDR2 SDRAM
• 32GB eMMC Flash memory

This is all integrated onto a small (67.6mm × 31mm) board that fits into a standard DDR2 SODIMM connector. The Flash memory is connected directly to the processor on the board, but the remaining processor interfaces are available to the user via the connector pins. You get the full flexibility of the BCM2837 SoC (which means that many more GPIOs and interfaces are available than with a standard Raspberry Pi), and designing the Module into a custom system should be relatively straightforward because we’ve put all the tricky bits onto the Module itself.
