Publication number: 20220294936Abstract: A camera module attaches a camera to a motor vehicle. The camera module includes a camera unit having an optical axis, and a support configured for accommodating the camera. The support has a main positioning surface transversal to the optical axis, such as when the camera is mounted with the support the front contact surface of the camera and the main positioning surface are in contact.
