Nicla Vision - Send Images to web server - Project

Arduino Boards
1

Hi everyone,

I hope you are doing well, first of all, I bought the Nicla Vision for an university project, my intention is to simulate a rear car cam but with a twist. I’m a master 1 student in electronics, I have used C,C++, python,assembly, labview and matlab. What I want to say is that I have prior knowledge to coding.

My objective is to send images to a web server(Using the Murata 1DX to connect to wifi ), when the distance sensor and camera see movement.

Now I have many questions regarding this project.

  • Does the OpenMV IDE can acces the ToF sensor and Murata 1DX? or is it purely to manipulate camera.
  • In regards to a web server, what are the better protocols to use for sending images from the OpenMV IDE.
    (I was thinking of using PHP for an HTTP web server).

Feel free to say whatever comes to mind, I’m open to all the opinions about this project. :smile:

Best Regards,

Ced

Does the OpenMV IDE can acces the ToF sensor and Murata 1DX

Yes, see the Portenta examples. The Portenta and Nicla both use the same ToF and WiFi modules and the same examples should work.

In regards to a web server, what are the better protocols to use for sending images from the OpenMV IDE.

We have a urequests modules you can use HTTP/Post, See:

Note you can test HTTP Post/Get with this docker image:
