Hello 🙂

How can i use / port OpenMV firmware on Raspberry PI5 as it has powerful hardware ( cpu and gpu and RAM ).  
i think we can achieve high end performance on RPI5 over 300fps VGA or 120fps HD maybe?  
please let me know!  
Thanks

Just use OpenCV on that platform.

thank you very much for your reply,  
i was learning OpenCV-python, i need to use it only for tracking an object , do you prefer a good YT video to learn about that ?  
Thanks 🙂

Sorry, I can’t help on that.

Also, for note… you’re not going to get 300 FPS or 120 FPS HD with the Pi. While it has a lot of processor speed… that performance falls off on higher resolutions at large frame rates. Additionally, the camera sensor itself won’t provide frames that fast necessarily.

no problem 🙂  
i found the AI vizycam that use RPI4 with high speed image sensor, they says it support up to 300FPS VGA processing imaging , you are right maybe tracking objects will require more cpu power, so maybe it will not achieve 300FPS, if so i will check jetson orin nano or intel 13th/AMD board , thanks 🙂
