Two Pixy cameras

I would like to use two Pixy cameras for my current project. Is it possible to have them both connected to an Arduino? The lighter weight and more efficient, i can get this project the better.

Hello Andrew,
It’s possible to connect 2 Pixys using SPI or I2C on the Arduino. It tends to be a little challenging because we don’t have a step-by-step guide on how to do this. Do you feel comfortable with embedded systems, or are you more of a newcomer to the field?

In that case I think its better to use Arduino Mega board and also use virtual I2C port. You should check the Pixy Camera Project given in this list of “Embedded System Projects”:http://www.theengineeringprojects.com/2016/10/embedded-system-projects.html They have given a step by step tutorial on how to interface Pixy Camera with Arduino if you are getting into some difficulty while interfacing.
