Pixy pixels from signature recognition

Pixy Software
#1

Hello,
I just got a Pixy CmuCam5. My goal to using the Pixy is to be able to recognize all pixels that match the signature in the picture.

If using an Arduino Mega 2560, is there a way to have the pixy output the location of the individual pixels in the block that match the signature?

Also, I may have found it somewhere in this forum but as far as I know, the Pixy cannot send pictures to the PC (like a camera) correct?

Thank you for your time.

Hi Manuel,

Unfortunately the current Pixy libraries don’t provide this level of detail to you. And yes, you are correct, the current Pixy libraries also don’t send over raw image data.

One workaround would be to save an image from within Pixymon and then separately run the color algorithm on that image, which can be found in the Pixymon source.
