Gravity: HuskyLens K210 AI Camera (No-Code Vision Sensor for STEM, Arduino & micro:bit) - DFRobot

Bring the power of AI into the classroom for 6th through 10th graders with the HUSKYLENS AI Camera, an easy-to-use AI visual sensor designed for hands-on learning. No complex codes. No frustrating configurations. Just pure hands-on learning. Imagine students designing a robot that can recognize its own face, an interactive game that responds to gestures, or a smart device that classifies objects by color. Powered by the Kendryte K210 processor, this Edge AI camera functions as a powerful object tracking sensor and an accurate facial recognition sensor without the need for programming. As a unique visual sensor with display, students receive immediate feedback while training it to build a robot tracker or other smart devices. It is the ideal visual sensor for STEM activities and is the perfect AI camera for micro:bit, Raspberry Pi and Arduino.

Why HUSKYLENS is the ideal AI visual sensor for the classroom STEM

• One-click AI training: No need for complex algorithms. Students can teach HUSKYLENS to recognize new objects, faces and colors in seconds. Just point the camera and press the "learning" button. This hands-on approach makes machine learning concepts easy to understand.

• Immediate on-screen feedback: With a built-in 2.0-inch color display, students can clearly see what HUSKYLENS recognizes. This immediate visual feedback makes it incredibly easy to debug projects and understand how AI interprets the world, all without the need for a computer.

• Smooth integration with existing tools: HUSKYLENS works with hardware already in use. It connects easily to popular educational platforms such as micro:bit, Arduino, Raspberry Pi and LattePanda via UART and I2C interfaces.

• Powered by a dedicated AI chip: A specialized Kendryte K210 processor performs all calculations directly on the device (Edge AI). This ensures fast real-time responses without the need for a powerful computer or constant Internet connection.

From idea to invention: endless design possibilities

HUSKYLENS is the "eyes" of countless student creations. Its six main functions provide the basis for hundreds of interdisciplinary activities spanning science, engineering and art.

• Facial recognition: Build a smart locker that opens only for the owner, or a device in the classroom that greets each student by name.

• Object tracking and recognition: Create a robot that can follow a specific person, a game controlled by gestures, or an automated system that sorts different types of objects.

• Line following: Design an autonomous vehicle for a robotics competition, or an intelligent delivery robot that follows a path traced on the floor.

• Color recognition: Make a device that sorts colored blocks, a musical instrument that plays notes based on color, or a quality control system for a mini factory.

• Tag recognition: Use QR codes and other visual tags to create interactive museum exhibits, automatically graded quizzes, or intelligent inventory systems.

Get started right away with dozens of classroom-ready tutorials

HUSKYLENS is supported by a comprehensive learning ecosystem with more than 40 free step-by-step tutorials and structured courses. These resources, created by educators for educators, provide a clear path to guide students from basic AI concepts to complex robotics challenges, saving valuable preparation time and ensuring effective classroom learning.

Fundamentals of AI with. micro:bit

This introductory course series teaches students how to plug in HUSKYLENS and use block programming (MakeCode/Mind+) to explore its core functions. Through fun projects such as a Musical Magic Mirror or an Access Control system with Facial Recognition, students learn the basics of computer vision, data acquisition, and conditional logic.

AI Robotics with Maqueen Plus

This course applies computer vision to the field of robotics. Students learn how to build and program an intelligent vehicle that can perform tasks autonomously. Lessons address advanced concepts such as line following for navigation, tracking objects for transportation, and creating a self-driving truck, helping students understand how AI fuels automation in the real world.

Creative AI and Theme Projects.

This collection showcases the creative potential of AI. Students can apply their skills to make imaginative inventions inspired by pop culture, such as a real Harry Potter Sorting Hat that can recognize faces or a Pokédex that identifies objects. These projects are excellent for stimulating creativity, interdisciplinary learning and problem-solving skills.

Designed for the Classroom: Reliable, Safe and Durable.

Designed to withstand the demands of a hands-on learning environment. HUSKYLENS is an officially approved FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) device, demonstrating its reliability and robust performance. It is fully CE and RoHS certified, ensuring that it meets rigorous safety standards for student use. For additional protection from bumps and drops, a custom-made silicone case is available separately, making it a durable tool for years of discovery.
