@nanomole40, not for sure what your looking for or to do, but there is also the OpenMV Cam that will talk I2C or Serial.

Hi David!

I see you are still @ work with the Omron Board!

Yea, once the end for the cable I will need gets here I will start to dig into it. I have so much to work on and this is just one of about 50 things I have to get working. It does need to be done so I might as well do it sooner rather than later.

Cool David!

If you need help (like some chinese work) tell me, i will help!

I'm hoping with DJs announcement with the support for developers and plugins, that lots of fold will start writing for lots of support for all kinds of Hardware like this sensor. And you can make money at it...

I should have a plugin for this sensor in about a week. I have c# getting almost all of the data from this sensor and returning it to a dictionary. Time permitting, I should have a plugin completed in about a week.

The plugin doesn't use an arduino for communication. it does use a usb/ttl device for communication. I will post information on the one i am using. It uses a baud rate of 921,600 bps. The plugin will require that you have an on board computer. The code will be open source as I am using some things from an open source project. This plugin uses a python app to communicate with the Omron, which then passes back json. The plugin processes the json and provides the variables to ARC. In order to keep the payload light, I won't be passing back the video or image.

This version doesn't do facial recognition. I will be adding those features later. I will post STL files for a case for the sensor, the python script for communicating with the Omron and the plugin for processing the JSON.

What's the advantage of using this? Specifically since the ARC mobile app has color, motion, face, multi color and glyph tracking built-in?
