Pixy2 is the newest version of the popular Pixy (CMUcam5) smart vision sensor for robotics! You can quickly "teach" objects to Pixy2 with the press of a button. It saves you time by only outputting the object data you're interested in. New with Pixy2 are a dedicated line following mode with support for "road signs," as well as an integrated LED light source. A multitude of connection options means you can use Pixy with almost any microcontroller. It connects directly to Arduino with the included cable, and fully supports Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone Black with included software libraries. Also included in the box is a USB cable, and mounting hardware to attach Pixy to your robot creation. The firmware, software and hardware are open source, so you can tweak to your heart's delight. Free tech support is included on the Pixycam wiki!
