Notes and version constraints

  • The module becomes noticeably warm during operation; per the source this is normal
  • Avoid touching components on the backside of the PCB to prevent affecting electrical performance
  • On macOS with OpenCV some parameters such as brightness or contrast may not be controllable; using Linux with V4L2 drivers is recommended
  • The scripts referenced in the source point to a demo file on files.waveshare.com; verify the file is still available before use
  • Focus range 5 cm–5 m is an approximation from the source; for critical applications please verify manually
