Re: [DIYbio] $50 camera good for microscopy with machine vision code included

There's also the 50 FPS (with detection happening at 640x480 res) Pixy
CMUCam5, which also has Python interfaces... from looking at both this
and openMV I'd tend to say the Pixy might be more 'bang for your buck'
(value/$):
http://www.cmucam.org/projects/cmucam5/wiki/Introduction_and_Background

and it's available now, and has generations of development history behind it too
$75
