The Pixy2 CMUcam5 is much more than a regular camera, it’s a vision sensor capable of detecting hundreds of objects at any time. Using the on-board button you can teach the Pixy2 module the profile of an object (up to 7 unique profiles supported), and then detect and track it whilst it’s in the view of the camera. It’s fast too, processing 60 frames of video per second to make your project see!
Features
Tiny, lightweight design – It’s quite a small board
Teach it new objects – Once you have it powered (5-10V depending on your method) you can use the button to teach the Pixy2 a color signature for up to 7 different objects.
Color matching and tracking – The color signature is learned and the Pixy2 tries to find it in every frame it sees. If it does find it, it will create a table of objects with an index of where the object is, and then try to match it on every new frame.
Color Codes – In addition to signatures, you can use adjacent squares of colors to be recognised as codes, allowing for hundreds of permutations
Line Tracking
Integrated Lighting – There’s also a couple of LEDs to provide around 20 lumens of light if it’s needed. They actually thought of everything.
Microncontroller compatible – It will work with Arduino and other major platforms using the included cable.
PixyMon Software – You can install the PixyMon software on Windows/Mac/Linux platforms to develop with the Pixy2 and see what’s happening.
