Jean-Luc Aufranc writes about the CamThink NeoEyes NE302, a compact vision camera designed for developers and makers. Utilizing an Arm Cortex-M55 MCU with an integrated Neural-ART NPU, the device supports high-performance edge tasks like object detection and pose estimation while maintaining efficient power consumption through a dedicated STM32U073 "WakeCore" controller. Unlike its predecessor, this version lacks a battery and relies on USB-C for 5V power delivery only.
- Features an ST Neural-ART NPU capable of up to 600 GOPS
- Supports WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 LE connectivity
- Includes hardware acceleration for H.264 and JPEG encoding (up to 1080p @ 30fps)
- Utilizes an OS04C10 4MP camera sensor with M12 lens mount options
- Offers a Web UI for real-time preview and model execution
