JeVois Smart Machine Vision Camera

😄

JeVois is an ARM Linux based camera module, delivered by JeVois Inc.. So far, this is the ONLY ARM Linux based camera module that I’m recommending, for its well-designed community as well as plenty of source code on Github.

1. Specifications

Clearly:

• JeVois Hardware Page: JeVois is based on the Made In China ARM Linux chip Allwinners A33
• JeVois Software Page: JeVois runs a full Linux operating system.

2. Getting Started with Jevois

The BEST place to start with JeVois is the following Youtube video:

I’m NOT going to repeat this step-by-step setup but move forward to the demonstration step directly.

3. Connect JeVois with Host

After having flashed JeVois’s TF card with the LATEST Linux image, we connect JeVois camera module into the laptop. This TF card will NOT mount onto the computer as a device automatically, but can be detected by lsusb as follows:

longervision-GT72-6QE% lsusb
......
Bus 001 Device 016: ID 1d6b:0102 Linux Foundation EEM Gadget
......

4. Simple Demonstration

Again, a Youtube video is suggested to follow for the demonstration:

4.2.2 My Test

You can either download JeVois Inventor directly from the Official Website, or like me, build JeVois Inventor source code from scratch, based on my own QT, etc. Anyway, after JeVois Inventor has been successfully installed, it’s the time for us to test it out.

Being quite busy these days. Seriously, ARM board based on AllWinner H3 from my company Longer Vision is manufactured, and under test. Let’s have some fun.

In the end, better to listen to some music while blogging.
