v1.0.3

v1.0.3 is the initial release of the OpenMV Python package — a host-side Python library and the openmv command-line tool for talking to an OpenMV Cam from your computer over the Camera Protocol V2. As the first release there is nothing to migrate from; this entry summarizes what it shipped with.

Highlights

  • The ``openmv`` CLI — connect to a camera over its USB serial port and stream its live video to your desktop.

  • Run scripts on the camera — push a .py script to the cam and run it from the command line.

  • Camera Protocol V2 library — a Python implementation of the protocol for scripted, host-side control of a camera.

  • pip-installable — pip install openmv.

New features

The openmv command-line tool:

  • Stream live video from a connected camera (--port), with an adjustable preview scale (--scale).

  • Run a script on the camera (--script).

  • Benchmark protocol throughput (--bench).

  • Load firmware ELF symbols so the profiler shows function names (--firmware).

  • Quiet (--quiet) and verbose-debug (--debug) modes.

Breaking API changes

None. v1.0.3 is the initial release — there is no prior version to break compatibility with.
