I tested this and it seemed to improve the visibility of the camera! as for the weird grainy image from the first post.. I think I didnt have the csi cable plugged into the camera properly so the signal was off... I am still going to test this with more ir illuminators and then i will update.The following code, when inserted after creating the picam2 object, but before configuring or starting the camera, should apply the tuning file.I have not applied the json file to my code. Do you know where or how I can access this?
The storage location of the tuning files differs between Pi5 and previous models but picamera2 will find and load the file given only the appropriate name.
The suggestion to try disabling the on-board illuminators is based on them being fairly high current devices, so may be loading the supply to the module/board and affecting its operation.Code:
tuning = Picamera2.load_tuning_file("ov5647_noir.json")picam2 = Picamera2(tuning=tuning)
Okay thanks, I added it to my code. I will test it later when it is dark outside. Also, how do I disable the illuminators... I cant find any documentation for this and I am very new to using it
do you have any other suggestions if these things don't work? is my best option to just add more leds?
thank you for the help Image may be NSFW.
