Current Status

For now, it works as a portable webcam of sorts. I’m working on adding digital stabilization with an IMU and a wider FOV camera so that it actually becomes an action camera. So far, it seems that the processing for this will need to be done externally since the Pi Zero 2W might not be up for it.
