The Adafruit PiCowbell Camera Breakout pairs a 5-megapixel OV5640 camera sensor with an ultra-wide 160-degree lens for your Raspberry Pi Pico or Pico W. Capture the widest possible field of view—ideal for fisheye effects, security applications, or robotics vision projects.

The RP2040's fast PIO interface handles the 8-bit parallel (DVP) camera data, with an onboard 16 MHz oscillator providing the required clock signal. A micro SD card slot and shutter button are included, plus a STEMMA QT port for I2C accessories.
