IoT & LoRa

Ever wanted an automated house? Or a smart garden? The Arduino IoT Cloud compatible board Nicla Vision allows you to build your next smart project. You can connect devices, visualize data, control and share your projects from anywhere in the world. Nicla Vision combines a powerful STM32H747AII6 Dual ARM Cortex M7/M4 IC processor with a 2 MP color camera that supports TinyML, as well as a smart 6-axis motion sensor, integrated microphone and distance sensor. You can easily include it into any project because it’s designed to be compatible with all Arduino Portenta and MKR products, fully integrates with OpenMV, supports MicroPython and also offers both WiFi and Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity. It’s so compact – with its 22.86 x 22.86 mm form factor – it can physically fit into most scenarios, and requires so little energy it can be powered by battery for standalone applications. All of this makes Nicla Vision the ideal solution to develop or prototype with on-device image processing and machine vision at the edge, for asset tracking, object recognition, predictive maintenance and more – easier and faster than ever. Train it to spot details, so you can focus on the big picture. Automate anything Check every product is labeled before it leaves the production line; unlock doors only for authorized personnel, and only if they are wearing PPE correctly; use AI to train Nicla Vision to regularly check analog meters and beam readings to the Cloud; teach it to recognize thirsty crops and turn the irrigation on when needed.Anytime you need to act or make a decision depending on what you see, let Nicla Vision watch, decide and act for you. Feel seen Interact with kiosks with simple gestures, create immersive experiences, work with cobots at your side. Nicla Vision allows computers and smart devices to see you, recognize you, understand your movements and make your life easier, safer, more efficient, better. Keep an eye out Let Nicla Vision be your eyes: detecting animals on the other side of the farm, letting you answer your doorbell from the beach, constantly checking on the vibrations or wear of your industrial machinery. It’s your always-on, always precise lookout, anywhere you need it to be. Downloads Schematics Datasheet
