EmbeddedEveryone Likes TinyOpenMV has a new Kickstarter so CEO Kwabena Agyeman chatted with us about more powerful (and smaller!) programmable cameras. See OpenMV’s site for their existing cameras. See their (already funded!) kickstarter page for the super powerful N6 and the ridiculously small AE3. Note that OpenMV still is committed to open source. See their github if you want to know more. Edge AI is the idea of putting intelligence in the devices (instead of in the cloud). There is an advocacy and education foundation called Edge AI Foundation.

EmbeddedOne Thousand New InstructionsKwabena Agyeman joined Chris and Elecia to talk about optimization, cameras, machine learning, and vision systems. Kwabena is the head of OpenMV (openmv.io), an open source and open hardware system that runs machine learning algorithms on vision data. It uses MicroPython as a development environment so getting started is easy. Their github repositories are under github.com/openmv. You can find some of the SIMD details we talked about on the show: 150% faster: openmv/src/omv/imlib/binary.c 1000% faster: openmv/src/omv/imlib/filter.c Double Pumping: op...2024-05-171h 24

The BOM: Engineering a Path ForwardEpisode 3: Kwabena Agyeman | OpenMV President & Co-FounderContinuing our theme of DesignLab’s Community, this week our guest is President & Co-Founder of OpenMV and Lead Embedded Systems Engineer at Embark Trucks , Kwabena Agyeman. Kwabena and Majenta revisit his 2016 Hackaday SuperConference talk, “Kickstarting Computer Vision with the OpenMV” , discuss the Hackaday origins of OpenMV, and get a status update on how the startup is doing today. OpenMV makes low power, microcontroller boards which allows users to easily implement applications using machine vision in the real-world, which basically means OpenMV makes it possible for students and hobbyists to build simple...2022-06-2133 min
EmbeddedYou Are in SeaworldKwabena Agyeman joined us to talk about making OpenMV (@OpenMVCam), an easy-to-use camera and control module with built-in machine vision functions, all interfaced via MicroPython. To learn more about computer vision, Kwabena suggested looking at PyImageSearch or reading the April tags code as it is a good introduction to image manipulation and matrix operations. Some other interesting links: Ferrari World, view from satellite Cloud Atlas (on Netflix) DIY Robotics from Chris Anderson: DIY Robocars Kwabena worked on the CMUCam (version 3) The Amp Hour had a good episode about MicroPython Elecia likes this introduction to...2017-08-241h 11
Circuit Break - A MacroFab PodcastEP#27: If There is a Bug, You Can Fix ItPodcast NotesOur Guest this week is Kwabena Agyeman who runs OpenMV. See Figure 1.The OpenMV project is about creating low-cost, extensible, Python powered, machine vision modules and aims at becoming the “Arduino of Machine Vision“. See Figure 2.Parker is using an OpenMV camera for the first iteration of the Semi-Automatic Inspection Machine.The great thing about Open Source is you can fix bugs.OpenMV started as a kickstarter.The original OV2640 Omni Vision camera sensor was discontinued and gray market parts where found but didn't work. Replaced with the OV7725.KeySniffer sniffs cheap wireless keyboard protocols. We shoul...2016-08-0636 min
