I just want to ask if there is any camera module (pi cam) that can do both nightvision and day recording?

Question

I'm planning to make a project with a raspberry pi and pi cam as a toy car surveillance.

IP cam is commonly used, so I was thinking if the pi cam has the same features with the IP cam such as the nightvision (auto detect or could be coded).

Please guide me. Thank you

Not an answer, but technically I believe the difference between the noir cam and the normal one is that the normal one has an infrared filter removed -- a bit about that here, which implies to me it is probably a one or the other way deal with that. Also relevant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_and_night_camera ...Which implies what the pi camera doesn't have that a day/night camera has is a specialized DSP. — goldilocks, Dec 01 '19 at 15:05
Not the normal PI camera. Other yes, of course there are. However, I suggest to deeply look on the web: is full of ideas and component!! Have a look here. — Leos313, Dec 01 '19 at 15:23

Yes, there is a Pi cam that can do both. It can be set on auto detect to record during the day and night. I found this one on Amazon.
