HUSKYLENS - An Easy-to-use AI Machine Vision Sensor

by DFRobot

HuskyLens is an easy-to-use AI machine vision sensor. It is equipped with multiple functions, such as face recognition, object tracking, object recognition, line tracking, color recognition, and tag (QR code) recognition.

Through the UART / I2C port, HuskyLens can connect popular main control boards like Arduino, micro:bit, and Raspberry Pi to help you make very creative projects without playing with complex algorithms.

HuskyLens is pretty easy-to-use. You can change various algorithms by pressing the function button. Click the learning button, HuskyLens starts learning new things. After that, HuskyLens is able to recognize them.

Additionally, HuskyLens carries a 2.0 inch IPS screen. So you don’t need to use a PC for parameter tuning. Enjoy the convenience it brings, what you see is what you get!

HuskyLens is designed to be smart. It has the built-in machine learning technology that enables HuskyLens to recognize faces and objects. Moreover, by long pressing the learning button, HuskyLens can continually learn new things even from different angles and in various ranges. The more it learns, the more accurate it is.

HuskyLens adopts the new generation of specialized AI chip Kendryte K210. The performance of this special AI chip is 1,000 times faster than that of the STM32H743 when running neural network algorithm. With these excellent performances, it is capable of capturing even fast-moving objects.

With the HuskyLens, your projects have new ways to interact with you or environment, such as interactive gesture control, autonomous robotics , smart access control and interactive toys. There are so many new applications for you to explore.

HuskyLens' object-tracking skills can be used to learn specific gestures. It is able to recognize those learned hand movement patterns and feed their positions. With this data, creating awesome interactive projects has never been so easy.

HuskyLens can detect and follow lines. Line following is not something new, there are plenty of excellent methods and algorithms out there. However, most of them require tedious parameter tuning. HuskyLens provides a new way to do line following: simply click the button, then it starts learning and tracking new lines. Let's enjoy the fun of making with HuskyLens!

HuskyLens can be used as robot eyes. which allow your robot to recognize you, understand your hand gesture commands, or help you put stuff in order and so on. With Huskylens, nothing is impossible!

    Works really well. Have to say that I might get some 1mm as the 0.5mm is quite thin for my needs (mainly wiring between a uC PCB and I2C devices with single core wire). I guess the 0.5mm would be more appropriate for soldering surface mount items.

    This solder is good if your joint location is not a large copper plane, in that case make sure to heat the surface adequately before applying the solder and you'll be fine.

    I tried the 0.5mm but prefer this 1mm. What I do need is a new iron more suitable for lead free solder.... Another good product from Pimoroni.

    Takes a bit of getting used to if you're used to lead solder. Dispatched in good time and worked well to solder a GPIO header on to a Raspberry Pi Zero.

    I hope other people will become aware of fair supply chains that can be developed within the ICT and electronics industries. Use of this product will be a small step towards a fairer supply chain.
