Vizy Review: Raspberry Pi Computer Vision Made Simple

When the Raspberry Pi 4 burst onto the scene, with four 1.5 GHz CPU cores and up to 8GB of RAM there was a gasp from the community. The extra horsepower provided those interested in machine learning and AI to finally use the Raspberry Pi to power their projects. Over time, TensorFlow and TensorFLow Lite saw numerous upgrades and finally cemented the Raspberry Pi as the ideal low cost introduction to the topic. The problem is, where do we start? Vizy from Charmed Labs, starting at $259 for a unit that comes with a Raspberry Pi 4 2GB or $269 - $299 for 4 or 8GB, is a smart camera for those starting out with machine learning.
