I am playing with my OpenMV that I got (order number: 1024). I cannot seem to get any of the demo scripts to run from the IDE. I can screen into the the it though:
Micro Python v1.4.4-125-g07c8f99 on 2015-08-18; OPENMV2 with STM32F427
Type "help()" for more information.
>>> sensor.reset()
Traceback (most recent call last):

I’ve read some of the docs and it seems the IDE is not ready for prime time yet. How do I work with this product without the IDE?
I’ve also found that the IDE is less robust loading the example code on OSX than it is on Linux (Ubuntu). Mostly this manifests as having to hit “Connect” and then “Execute” several times before the code will run.
This is running the IDE from the current source tree, not the pre-built OSX application. I can’t dig into it right now, but I suspect that there is an issue with USB being handled differently in OSX than in Linux (encountered this before). When I get back to the office next week I’ll see if I can find any notable differences between OSX and Linux with my Beagle USB bus analyzer.
