Plugging in the I2C lines of the device in addition to the SPI lines allow the camera to work somewhat on the BoSL board. The connection is unreliable though, and photos will commonly not transmit.

The ArduCam module was tested as it is likely to form the backbone of the out of water turbidity sensor. Its standard library was downloaded and it was wired to an Arduino Uno on 5V. This worked well, and photos were able to be taken. Next the power supply was changed to 3.3 V. This also worked well and the camera appeared to still be working normally.
