In evaluating the HVC-P2, I'm going to focus on the feasibility of using it in a security monitoring application. As I began to think about what features that I might want in the application, I realized that I may be putting the cart before...
There is good news and bad news related to the availability of software for the HVC-P2. The good news is that there is an evaluation GUI application for Windows that is ready to run. And the product website has sample code available for C...
IntroductionI recently ordered various LED home lighting from a UK supplier (theledspecialist.co.uk), and unfortunately one arrived smashed : ( They kindly sent a replacement very quickly, but before I threw out the damaged one, I couldn't resist...
Here I did some experiments targeted to PYNQ Embedded Vision applications. It includes reading the USB camera in FPGA and projecting the image output via HDMI display on PC, testing the real time edge detection with the USB camera interfaced to the F...
Here I tried to learn different methods to program the Digilent ARTY Z7 Dev Board. One simple way is to program .vhdl file in the Vivado and then create the sdk. Another way is to create the Block diagram in the vivado and then export the hardware to...
The MIMXRT1020-EVKMIMXRT1020-EVK is the i.MX RT1020 Evaluation Kit, a 2-layer, low cost through-hole, USB-powered PCB, which recently I had the chance to test drive.On June 2018, NXP released an addition to their i.MX RT Series, the i.MX RT1020, whic...
This is part 2 from the blog MyIoT: Infineon Shield2Go Boards for IoT - Review Here I will explain in detail about the tests I performed with the Infineon Shield2Go boards and the sensors. After setting up the Arduino IDE for the XMC_BOOTKIT and...
The HVC-P2 sensing unit that I am road testing is using the Omron OKAO Vision technology. Omron has developed a number of models of these "Human Vision Components" (HVC) but I've found it difficult to find documentation on them.&n...
I'm still working on the procedure that I want to use to test the performance of the HVC-P2. While I was pondering, I thought I'd try hooking the unit up to a Linux laptop. Of course that was a disaster. I stepped into the 3...
Road Test IntroductionIt was an honor to be selected for the road test of the Advantech USB-5830 16 channel digital I/O (each) module. I have been working with crypto-mining rigs and had felt that there is a need to architecting a “smart” high-...
Since I have the HVC-P2 working with the Evaluation Software GUI on my Windows 10 box, it seemed logical to try out the sample python code there before moving to the Raspberry Pi. This code was written at least a couple of years ago so it has de...
I had some time this weekend to 3D print a case for the HVC-P2 assembly. I just wanted something simple to protect the boards and to provide the capability to mount the unit on a tripod so that I would have a stable adjustable base for my testi...
I received my Omron Vision Sensor yesterday via UPS. The box was so light that is seemed empty; but there was the kit wrapped in bubble wrap in a static bag.The kit consists of a Camera board (25mm x 25mm) that is the size of an RPi camera and ...
I was fortunate to be selected as the roadtester for the Omron HVC-P2. I just received notification that the unit should arrive next week, so I thought I should do some research to prepare for the roadtest. It appears that this is Omron's ...
I have a long held secret that I have never revealed to anyone. But I'm ready to announce it now. (Let the drums roll!) Here it is: I have always wanted to be an astronaut. Phew! I finally got that off my chest. Take a deep breath, Rand...
