Usage Instructions for Linux Embedded Boards

Software Environment

On Linux embedded boards such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, RDK, etc., since most systems support the UVC protocol by default, they can be used with OpenCV for image preview testing. To preview images normally, please connect a screen to the board.

Testing Steps

  • Open the terminal and enter the following command to install OpenCV:

    sudo apt-get install python3-opencv
  • Download the demo and test.

    wget https://files.waveshare.com/wiki/common/Usb_camera_examples.zip
    unzip Usb_camera_examples.zip
    cd Usb_camera_examples
    sudo python3 Usb_camera_examples.py
