The OpenMV H7 is a compact, low-power machine vision camera that you program in MicroPython instead of C/C++. High-level Python scripting makes it easier to work with complex vision algorithm outputs and data structures while still providing full control over I/O pins, triggers, and image capture.

The included OV7725 sensor captures 640×480 grayscale (8-bit) or RGB565 (16-bit) images at up to 60 FPS above 320×240 resolution, and 120 FPS below. The H7 features removable camera modules, allowing you to swap in Global Shutter or FLIR Lepton sensors for advanced computer vision applications.
