Applications
The OpenMV Cam is a computer vision board for all industries that breaks the tension between performance, power and price. The OpenMV Cam enables customers to run advanced computer vision functions (object detection, object classification, tracking, etc.) in real-time, for years off of battery power, for less than $200 per unit.
The OpenMV Cam is a general purpose MicroPython powered microcontroller platform with camera input and computer vision processing already onboard. Sense, plan, and act using MicroPython to control general-purpose I/O pins that can do I2C/SPI/PWM/etc. along with being able to read/write files and talk to the internet through wifi/ethernet.
Drones
Integrate into your drone aircraft, or drone sensor payload, serving use cases such as surveillance, surveying, inspection and delivery across various end-markets.
- Drone Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance (In-Air)
- Drone Landing Navigation
- Real Time Inspection (Infrastructure, Agriculture, etc.)
- Real Time Tracking (site operations, defense, etc.)
Industrial Sites
Distribute across Energy Facilities (Oil & Gas, Nuclear, Renewable, etc.), Production Facilities (Chemical, Paper, Steel, etc.) and Transportation Facilities (Ports, Railways, etc.) to monitor assets and process flow.
- Asset Location Monitoring (Containers, Trains, Vehicles on Property)
- Analog Gauge Monitoring
- Asset/Process State Monitoring (Lever Position, Liquid Level, Liquid/Steam Color, etc.)
- Human Behavior Monitoring (Safe Distance, Correct Steps)
Manufacturing and Warehouses
