The V2 is designed for that however there are a few issues you need to overcome. 1, it does not connect to the pi like a pi camera. 2, there is a steep learning curve when it come to programming. if you were looking for a quick fix for image recognition then I'm sorry it cant help. I have been struggle to understand it for a long time and I still have the V1 Unfortunately due to the component crises the RPI issue is bad however wave share do a better resolution camera replacement to the official RPI camera2
