大家好，OPEN AI-CAMERA 正式立项了 Project Kickoff
OPEN AI-CAMERA 是一台基于 Rockchip RV1126B 的开源二轴云台 AI 摄像机，面向端侧 AI 视觉、实时目标跟踪、场景采集与嵌入式视觉研究。
但我们想先说清楚这个帖子是什么：它是项目的主线连载帖。
从今天起到正式发布，3D 结构文件、基础固件、云台控制 Demo、NPU 检测跟踪示例、完整 SDK——每个阶段的产出都会在这里和后续分帖同步。
OPEN AI CAMERA is an open-source 2-axis pan-tilt AI camera built on Rockchip RV1126B. It is designed for edge AI vision, real-time object tracking, scene capture and embedded vision research.
This thread is the project main log. From today until release, we will publish each milestone here: 3D mechanical CAD files, base firmware and PTZ control demos, NPU detection & tracking samples, the full SDK.
为什么做它 Why this project
- 做端侧 AI 视觉的开发者，不该在"黑盒整机"和"从零画板"之间二选一；
- 一台 AI 摄像机应该看得清（8MP）、看得稳（二轴云台）、想得快（3 TOPS NPU 端侧推理），并且这三件事出厂就配齐。
You shouldn’t have to choose between a locked black box and designing a board from scratch. A proper AI camera should see clearly (8MP), stay steady (2-axis pan-tilt), and think on-device (3 TOPS NPU) — with all three ready out of the box.
- Open Source —— 开放SDK源代码和硬件资料。Open source SDK and hardware design files
- AI Powered —— 3 TOPS INT8 NPU，端侧推理不依赖云端。3 TOPS INT8 NPU, on-device inference, no cloud dependency
- Multi-Scenario —— 摄像头、显示、CAN/GPIO/Debug 全引出，机器人、安防、教育、创客都能接。Camera, Display, CAN / GPIO / Debug exposed for robotics, security, education and maker builds
- Community —— 立项即共建，社区意见直接进迭代。Built in the open, shaped by this thread
