And it uses an iPhone lens.

So that’s the short version. Here’s the longer one he sent to me:

This is actually the 2nd generation of my mini camera. The 1st gen used the original sensor board. The GBCamera has 2 PCBs inside - one for the cart, the other for the sensor and it’s connected with a set of wires inside. This allows the “eyeball” to twist around. I was afraid to remove the sensor my first go-around because it’s encased in resin, meaning too much heat can damage it.

Switching to an iPhone lens was kind of an accident, honestly. I was actually experimenting with higher-quality replacement lenses - asking around companies on Alibaba if they could make a higher quality glass replacement . It was proving harder than I thought due to a lot of unknowns surrounding dimensions of the lens.

I just bought a 5C lens however and I think I can get a version without the camera bump, but I’m concerned it may have some vignette - I need to experiment more. Also the 13/14 lens has some potential as a slightly better quality at the detriment of larger camera bump.
