Is it possible to run OpenCV on Raspberry Pi Pico onboard?


I need to build standalone module which records video from rasberry pi camera to sd card (through external module) when the motion on video is detected.

So, I need to run OpenCV that I will use for motion detection. Is it possible to run it on Raspberry Pi Pico on board? How much FPS will it have in case for i.e. background subtraction?


Solution

  • You could instead use an esp32 which has 520kb of memory and van handle up to 1024 x768 (https://github.com/joachimBurket/esp32-opencv) or even use the new esp32-s3, a successor, with 8mb ram.
