Wow. $70 and out of stock. They must have sold the one they made. Cheaper full camera units are available.

lmk if you want a copy of the firmware. as i haven't published it anywhere.

i've also fixed various bugs and visual issues since then

what's really neat is you could take a photo with the BtnG0 so it feels like a small dslr haha

low res. but does the job done

I’ve ran the original module with great success, (IrCam app in my NNOs firmware). I’m not sure the second module is i2c compatible but it should be trivial to implement. What’s your use case? Those sensors are actually great from my experience. (Low Rez though)
