These cameras are awesome! Less expensive than the raspberry pi camera, yet includes wifi, 2-way microphone and case! Is it possible to connect them to the USB port of a raspberry pi as a video/photo camera?
No, not with the Wyze firmware. The USB ports on the camera are strictly for power only. (The large USB port on the Pan will eventually be for thumb drive storage, too.)
Hi…as per my knowledge CSI Interface camera communication we have via LAN port when using camera module raspi one with raspberry pi. which means its occupy my Laptop LAN Port. But I want Raspi have raspi camera module connected and I can access camera by Raspberry pi usb port by connection to my laptop usb port.
Of course, now that it’s April 2020, things have changed. There is a webcam firmware available that turns the Waze cam into a real USB webcam that can be plugged into a RaspberryPi via USB-A to USB-A cable. These are not normally found, so special order it or hack up two cables and solder four wires to create one.
