My WRO Robosports team and I are struggling to use the OpenMV H7 camera on The spike hub, It would be amazing if you could please upload a video on the setup from start to finish, we are looking forward to it.
I have an OpenMV which I’ve never used, so looking forward to your full tutorial. I just finished a more primitive way of connecting a camera to a Spike Prime which I intend to use for object finding and following. I use a Pixy camera connected to a microView Arduino along with a tiny DAC board from Adafruit to convert the centroid data from the camera to a varying voltage. This voltage drives an LED which varies in brightness with the change in voltage. Finally, I point a Spike color sensor at the LED which produces corresponding values which can be used by a Python PID program to control the motors for object following. It’s a bit of a kluge, but it works, and, like your time of flight sensor, I can plug any sensor I want (analog, digital or I2C) into the microView and get its data into the Spike hub.
I am working on an uart protocol to make this easy and generic. Subscribe to be notified. I will also publish on my blog. Now I'm working hard to get new supplies of this board.
The protocol works fine now. You can read all about it here: github.com/antonvh/LMS-uart-esp/tree/main/Libraries/UartRemote This weekend I'll update the H7 project with the latest version of the library.
I was also able to connect pixycam v2 using I2C class in umachine module in Robot Inventor firmware (unfortunately I could not find umachine class in Spike Prime firmware). I am also experimenting now with M5Stack StickV over UART using Lego ultrasonic sensor block and exact distance values.There is also HuskyLens from DFRobot that is easier to program than M5StickV which can also be programmed using MicroPython.
I was able to connect HiTechnic Color Sensor with Spike Prime. This sensor communicates over I2C and works with 3.3V. I connected blue wire (SDA) to pin 6, yellow (SCL) to pin 5, green (VCC) to pin 4 and red (GND) to pin 3. You can also split the cable to add multiple sensors on one Spike Prime port (if you can change the sensor's I2C address). Here is my code below. from umachine import I2C,Pin from hub import port port.C.mode(port.MODE_GPIO) i2c=I2C(scl=Pin.cpu.D11,sda=Pin.cpu.E4) print(i2c.readfrom_mem(1,0,24)) c=i2c.readfrom_mem(1,66,4) print("color=",c[0]," red=",c[1]," green=",c[2]," blue=",c[3])
@@ikarib I found gianluca's github repo with the pin numbers, thanks. That is great. I also discovered that he has deceased last December due to Covid. That is really sad, a big loss.
Yes, you can. Well, in theory. All of the hubs you mention have BLE chips. And you can access that in Python. No one has built handy framework for this yet. (That I know) So it will be hacking and pioneering at this stage.
No but with my breakout board, you can connect any cheap i2c or uart sensor you find in chinese webshops. I exepct new stock today. antonsmindstorms.com/product/spike-ri-wifi-i2c-board/

@@AntonsMindstorms I'm eager to buy the interface board, so wondering if you've made any progress on the easy to use uart protocol.

Cool stuff, keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Cool! Mindblowing! Keep it up!

Awesome demo. I am looking forward to the instructions on how to replicate it
Coming soon! When I find the time, they will appear on github, here: github.com/antonvh/LMS-uart-esp
Very cool, I'd like to order few, but can not find the product on your page, any place to find it? Thank you!

Yes, you can. Well, in theory. All of the hubs you mention have BLE chips. And you can access that in Python. No one has built handy framework for this yet. (That I know) So it will be hacking and pioneering at this stage.
what ide did you use?
Do you sell the board ? cant seem to find in your website
Is it possible to use scratch codes to do that?
I don't think so
i want to buy, breakout board, but i cant. Can you shipping to capital of Kazakhstan - Astana?
I added Kazakhstan as a destination. Thanks for asking.
Thank you 😊@@AntonsMindstorms
I bought from your website, I received a message in the mail, but there is no information about the order on your website. My order is number 8613
@@Erlan004 It's best to reply to that message you received, then I can track and send you an update.
do you know of a third party manufacturer that sells sensors for the new mindstorm 51515?

@@leoarndt2849 They are out of stock. I have one very last one lying around. Email me or message me on facebook/insta if you want it!

Yes you can, why?

I added Russia to my website now. I'm also investigating cheaper methods to ship internationally.
