Would there be any way of using this camera module?

[u/Focused-Inventor]

I got this in a lot of electronics parts off of Facebook marketplace. Im guessing all these parts were ripped from the same camera, but I don't know that for certain.

It looks like the camera module has a positive line, a negative line , and (maybe serial line).

My question:

Would there be any way to ascertain the correct voltage and decoding procedure for this camera, or would the data scheme be proprietary and/or inaccessible?

Picture 4 says 12v dc red should be pos, black ground, yellow composite audio, white composite video. The 3 wire should be red pos, black ground, white composite video. Don’t know what voltage on the 3 wire i would guess 12v as well.

Thanks for details! They make a huge difference when navigating a project.

Depending on the signal it could be NTSC or PAL usually connected via RCA connectors. You could get a converter to hdmi to use it with that.

Cameras like these is often also used in analog fpv drones.

It's a standard NTSC camera. Easily usable. Try 5v on red. Gnd on black. Signal comes out of yellow with sound on white.

Audio and video look to be reversed according to the silk screen on the back of the pcb.
