For the raspberry pi, I wanted to get a small camera similar to aducam low light but its suitable for both day and night time with street lights.
Night use case should be able to look as clear and bright as this example image:
Camera will not be operating when car is not in operation, camera can at various times be exposed to various different sun lights including reflections from cars during operation times.

What about this? Night Vision Camera for Raspberry Pi - IR-CUT 5MP (Version F) - The Pi Hut
It is a 5P night vision camera. The camera has an adjustable 3.6mm focal length lens and 75.7 degree viewing angle.

Hi Joe,
What an interesting deep dive I just took - g-sensitivity apparently is one of the driving factors for this.
Here is a comparison of a similar product using the same sensor:
This sensor uses the same as shown in the photos above: https://core-electronics.com.au/arducam-2mp-ultra-low-light-starvis-imx462-motorized-ir-cut-camera.html
There is some blurring, but for the price thats pretty phenominal!
Keen to see how it comes out - would love to see some of the photos/videos you take!
