Raspberry Pi Zero-W with Camera Module

Required Materials

You'll need a microSD card, a sufficient power supply, and a micro-B USB Cable. We do not recommend the pre-installed NOOBS card, as it may not include a recent enough version of the Pi operating system to support the Pi Zero W.

Very little of this kit requires anything but following our step-by-step guide; however, you might want to check out our through hole soldering tutorial as you'll need to do some soldering to put the pins in place on the Pi Zero W and the Pi Servo Hat. 



The SparkFun Raspberry Pi Zero W Camera Kit provides you with a pan/tilt camera controlled via a Raspberry Pi Zero W. This kit consists of parts that are easy to assemble and program, expanding the Raspberry Pi Zero W's IoT capabilities and highly tailored accessibility to the Pi Camera Module. With the Zero W camera kit, you will be able to create homemade motion-activated security systems, webcam interfaces for streaming, or monitoring stations for any number of projects and adventures. After just a few steps you'll be set up in no time with your very own remote camera system!

Inside this kit is everything you need to assemble your pan/tilt camera, including a Raspberry Pi Zero W, our own Pi Servo HAT, a Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2, a pan/tilt bracket with servos, and all the cables and headers you need to hook them all up. We have also written an in-depth assembly guide that walks you through each step to put together your kit, as well as programming steps utilizing the Raspbian Jesse Image and libraries. This guide can be found here.
