The Raspberry Pi Zero is only 2.5 inches in length and somewhat over an inch wide, yet clearly that isn't too little to pack in another port. The Raspberry Pi Foundation reported in a blog entry today that on account of "blind luckiness," they figured out how to add a camera connector to the Zero.
To do as such, they utilized a similar fine-pitched port from the Compute Module improvement unit, initially proposed to permit the Raspberry Pi to interface with an assortment of shape calculates modern applications. By means of a connector link, the port can append to the greater connector utilized on the Raspberry Pi camera module.
That module—sold independently—has a five megapixel settled concentration camera that backings 1080p video recording and also still picture catch. It's helpful for home security frameworks and untamed life cameras, among different employments.
The Raspberry Pi Zero made waves at its $5 cost when the UK establishment propelled it the previous fall as a younger sibling to the Raspberry Pi. It runs a Broadcom BCM2835 processor and a 1GHz ARM11 center that the organization says is 40 percent quicker than Raspberry Pi 1. It has 512MB of LPDDR2 SDRAM, and additionally a smaller scale SD card opening, a little HDMI attachment for 1080p60 video yield, and Micro-USB attachments for information and power.
Request has been high to the point that every group of Pi Zeros has sold out quickly, as per the establishment. The interims between generation groups left it with an ideal opportunity to include the camera connector, which Raspberry Pi Founder Eben Upton called the most every now and again requested missing element.
On the off chance that you've been holding up to have a Pi Zero with a camera connector and need to get one on the web, you can (in principle) go to Adafruit, which is demonstrating the overhauled Pi Zero available to be purchased on its site. Issue is, they're sold out. So is Micro Center, alternate US Raspberry Pi merchant, however it indicates restricted in-store accessibility of what has all the earmarks of being the non-camera empowered past form.
