Buy it and use your imagination

Arducam, its a rabbithole of PI cameras. They also have a 108MP module, TOF camera etc

I doubt they RaspberryPi foundation will have match trouble porting their libs, and it’ll be relatively straightforward to maintain the same GPIO.
It’s a matter of resources and commitment. They have the resources, but the moment they even think of deviating from Broadcom, there will be not coming back from it. So, they have to be 100% in.

If it's for schools you can reach out to the raspberry pi company directly and often they will make some available to you, after proof it is for school/learning. At least this is something I remember reading some time ago. Worth an email to them at least.

Agreed.
I broke down and bought a Le Potato because I couldn't find a Pi - even overpriced - for a project I needed to get done.

Increase prices to the point people are willing to pay until the manufacturer is able to produce enough supply. Eliminate the middle man…

Typically Sony IMX imaging sensors are pretty well thought of in the machine vision world so potentially better in some ways. Sounds like more hassle than worth to configure a Pi based camera system in your car instead of a cheap yet functional dash cam though

Is there an alternative to the raspberry pi that still has the CSI-2 camera interface?

Damn. Now I feel guilty for having a few models laying around not doing anything.

Great, now please lower the prices or increase production of the pi4. I cannot justify $170 on an $80 product.

Do you think the resources for developing camera boards is impacting the production of Pi boards?

Well the only good RISC-V board i have seen looks basically like Raspberry pi 3 but with a RISC-V SoC made by VisionFive who also makes the SBC it is in. The main problem is it is RISC-V not ARM so the code will have to change to match.

Official only IR or visible wavelengths.
But if you're okay buying 3rd party there are a couple options that use the same Ribbon cable connection to the Pi that let you manually switch between the two.
The one I've been using only supports the Pi 3 and earlier (not the most recent Pi 4).
But I assume there's been more recent products as well.

Think it has a better sensor than a typical dash cam?

Now all we need is the ability to actually purchase Pis

The interview posted above highlights what I said although its 30 minutes. There's articles from Tom's hardware, Ars Technica, etc. That all go into more depth on their coverage of the interview. The short answer is Eben doesn't want to hurt the supply of the other products to release the Pi 5 so they're waiting. He said maybe end of year 2023 they could start thinking about a release

Wow, I had no idea Pis have a supply chain problem. I've been screwing around with a few on personal projects but they are Pis I've had on the shelf for years. I guess I should consider myself lucky to have gotten them for a reasonable cost. I just checked, and the 3B+ models like mine are going for $50-$100 on ebay, and I could find even crazy higher pricing. I just bought my kid an Arduino starter kit, I guess those are not experiencing the same issue.

In computer chips pretty much all energy ends up as heat. But it's also not wasted energy like it would be in an internal combustion engine.

I'm pretty sure your 3090ti puts out more heat, since it can eat a lot more power(450W TDP). How hot the card gets has little effect on its heat output.

I still have my raspberry pi 3 loaded with emulators... Collecting dust.
