First time here - trying to find a starting point for the openMV N6 device

I’m looking for an onboarding starting point on the website to guide me on how to get started with the OMV-N6-V1 cam device. Lot’s of info available on the website but no wayfinding/navigational doc.

Might seem obvious to many but do I start with the IDE or what other options out there. Hard to work it out from the website.

Guidance welcomed.

Thanks.

Hi, I am working on a giant tutorial right now for the board. This is something we’ve lacked for a while. It’s my focus to solve right now.

I just finished writing this though: OpenMV N6 — MicroPython 1.28 documentation

It will help get you started on basic board control. From there, checkout the ML examples for how to run some ML networks.

Finally, do you have a project in mind? That will be the best way to learn. Also, Claude or Open AI can write code very well for whatever you want if you point them to our docs.

Hi @kwagyeman

Thanks for the reply and thanks for the OpenMV N6 doc link. This is a very handy reference.

It’s always the case with me… cannot find anything… write question on forum… go back to website and the answer is staring right there at me.

Halfway down the doc landing page ( MicroPython 1.28 documentation ) is an info button titled “New to OpenMV?”.

I assume this is linked to the 3 steps shown at the head of the page: Open the IDEConnect the CamRun your first script

@gerrikoio I just updated the docs last night with a new landing page. The tutorial still lacks quite a bit. However, over the course of the next two weeks me and claude.ai will have it significantly updated.

The API reference though is very complete now for the v5.0.0 firmware coming soon.
