Can I use pixy2 to measure length?

Assume I have the application of wanting to measure the length of tube moving past a certain point in the vision frame, would this be possible (with resolution ~0.1mm)? Like measuring the length of tube being fed into a machine.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
This thread has some information on measuring distance:

0.1mm is probably not within the realm though. You might be able to get around 1mm resolution if the object is held sufficiently close to the lens.

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
