The M5StickV AI Camera is an adorable and compact AI camera. It offers a wide range of capabilities, including facial recognition and detection, object detection and classification, shape recognition, and real - time target and size detection, along with other great video and audio features. Powered by the Kendryte K210, an edge computing system - on - chip with a dual - core 64 - bit RISC - V CPU and a top - notch neural network processor, it's a powerful device. This module is equipped with the OmniVision OV7740 sensor using OmniPixel®3 - HS technology, which provides excellent low - light sensitivity, making it perfect for machine vision. Besides the OV7740 sensor, the M5StickV has more hardware resources like a speaker with a built - in I2S Class - D DAC, an IPS screen, a 6 - axis IMU, and a 200mAh Li - po battery. But be aware that the battery doesn't last long due to the high current draw of the display and CPU. It's a great dev kit for starting with the Kendryte K210 RISC - V core.





Using the M5StickV AI Camera is easy. First, make sure the 200mAh Li - po battery is charged. Turn it on and start exploring its features like facial or object detection. You can use it for various machine - vision projects. When using it in low - light environments, the OV7740 sensor will work well. However, keep in mind that because of the high power consumption of the display and CPU, the battery won't last long. So, it's a good idea to have a charger handy if you plan to use it for an extended period. For maintenance, keep the camera clean and avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you're using it for development with the Kendryte K210 RISC - V core, refer to the official documentation for more advanced usage.
