PIXY is one of the camera modules specified for image processing, the recognition algorithm is color-based filtering. The main purpose of this camera is recognition colors and name them as a familiar object. This camera can “learn” what colors you “thought” it at first.
What is Pixy Cam?
Pixy is a fast vision sensor you can quickly “teach” to find objects, and it connects directly to Arduino and other controllers. It's great for robotics or any other application that requires computer vision. Pixy uses a hue-based color filtering algorithm to detect objects.
Can Pixy2 detect shapes?
The Pixy2 is capable of recognizing seven distinct objects based upon their shape and color (or hue).
