Potential camera option for obstacle sensor

Post by nanobot9000 »

In my ongoing search for adding obstacle avoidance to the Crazyflie I came across this item. Does not appear to be commercialized yet (or at least I did not find it) but could be promising for all you that really smart embedded programmers and developers!

CSEM's Vision-In-Package system is the first of its kind to combine all elements of a vision system into less than 1 cubic centimeter.

I have heard back from them and the product was a prototype. They are looking for options to do further research and potential commercialization. I replied with the Crazyflie URL and suggested they reach out to your organization. Perhaps they can send you one to test out :)
