Hi everyone,
I want to see micro sized objects. Just seeing is enough. Is it possible with pixy cam. If yes can i do it with just the stock lens or should i upgrade it.And if possible can anyone share the spec sheet of the stock lens. Thanks in advance

Hello Tam,
Pixy is in essence a camera with a replaceable lens. If you want your Pixy to see on the micro scale, I think you have 2 options:

  1. Replace Pixy’s lens with a lens that allows micro imaging.
  2. Have Pixy look into a microscope.

The 2nd method is very simple. There are lots of webpages that describe using web cameras in this way.

Hope this helps!
