Description
- Feature 1: Powerful AI Processing Capabilities
As the core element of this gadget, the Grove Vision AI Module V2 utilizes WiseEye2 HX6538 processor with a dual-core Arm Cortex-M55 and integrated Arm Ethos-U55 neural network unit.
- Feature 2: Versatile No‑Code AI Model Deployment & Visualization
Via the SenseCraft AI platformSenseCraft AI, you can effortlessly choose from built‑in models (Mobilenet V1/V2, EfficientNet‑Lite, YOLO v5/v8, etc.) or upload custom datasets for “Quick Training” or “Image Collection Training”; once training is complete, models are deployed to the device with one click, and inference results are visualized in real time on the web—no coding required.
- Feature 3: Wi-Fi Enabled Smart Vision
Turn this gadget into an intelligent IP camera with built-in XIAO ESP32-C3's Wi-Fi capabilities. Stream detection results wirelessly and seamlessly integrate with platforms like Home Assistant, expanding its potential across diverse smart home scenarios. This wireless connectivity turns simple object detection into networked intelligent vision, enabling remote monitoring and smart automation applications.
- Feature 4: Local Closed‑Loop Automation with Home Assistant Integration
After deploying a model via SenseCraft AI and flashing ESPHome, users can integrate the XIAO Vision AI Camera into Home Assistant; within the automation editor, they can trigger other devices or send notifications based on detection events (e.g., falls, object detection), enabling a fully local, closed‑loop workflow from vision to action.
- Feature 5: Fully Open Source
All codes, design files, and schematics available for modification and use. And we can also help you customize the gadget to fit in your unique applications via our ODM services. Contact us at iot[at]seeed.cc if you're interested.
How's the performance of XIAO Vision AI Camera?
To have a quick evaluation of this board's performance, we compared it to Seeed's other MCU-based vision AI boards - Grove - Vision AI Module, thumb-size, AI-powered camera, easy-to-use, customized sensor, ultra low power cost - Seeed Studio, Mini ESP-CAM Dev Board for Edge AI - XIAO ESP32S3 Sense in four areas:
These results clearly demonstrate that the Grove Vision AI V2 in the XIAO Vision AI Camera is a premium choice for high-performance vision processing.
