Built into the camera circuit is a Kendryte K210 chip, a 400MHz dual core RISC-V 64bit processor which facilitates the following algorithms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Object tracking<\/li>\n<li>Facial recognition<\/li>\n<li>Object recognition<\/li>\n<li>Line tracking<\/li>\n<li>Colour recognition<\/li>\n<li>Tag recognition<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It should be popular with robotics people, especially, as a platform for solving tasks. It has the ability to detect spacial gestures, too, which means that your <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Minority_Report_(film)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minority Report<\/a>-style interfaces or art projects are possible using the module.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1371216747\/huskylens-an-ai-camera-click-learn-and-play\/description\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kickstarter<\/a> has a fairly punchy goal of over \u00a318k, but hopefully it&#8217;ll get there (as I&#8217;ve just backed it myself!).<\/p>\n<p>There are two flavours of camera &#8211; a standard, 2 megapixel module and an enhanced, 5 megapixel module for higher resolution pictures\/videos.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most intriguing features in on the back of the circuit &#8211; a 2-inch IPS screen. This means that you&#8217;ll be able to easily see what the camera module is doing while it is doing it without looking at another screen.
