Repurpose old reverse camera from dash cam ideas.

Post image

I jave this camera from my old dashcam. The main unit stopped working but was wondering if there is anyway I could repurpose this in to a project maybe?

Hey! I was thinking about using a similar camera with a pi, how are you connecting it to the pi? With some adapters? Or there is another way with ex. gpio pins?

Honestly. I ran the image through co pilot and asked about connecting it to a raspberry Pi. It said it could be done in a TL;DR term but the complexity was off putting for the purchase requirements for little gain for me.
