FAQ

Q1: Can the KOI2 camera rotate?

Yes, the KOI camera can rotate 180°.

Q2: What is the drive voltage of KOI2?

The drive voltage requires 5V, so it cannot be driven directly by microbit. It can be driven by the 5V power pin of the robotbit extension board.

Q3: How many categories does the KOI2 machine learning model support?

KOI2 is memory optimized and can support more than 20 categories. (KOI1 can only support 40 photos, which is approximately 10 categories.)

Q4:Does KOI2 support text-to-speech?

KOI2 cannot synthesize speech. However, it can play single channel WAV files.

Q5: Where can I program KOI2 as the master controller?

KOI uses microPython and can be programmed on KittenCode software for KittenBot. For beginners, it is recommended to use KOI2 as a module and program it in Kittenblock.

Q6: KOI2 gets hot during use? Is this normal?

KOI2 uses the K210 AI chip, which generates heat due to high-speed operation. This is normal.

Q7: Can KOI2 implement text recognition?

Implement the recognition of single digits 0~9 and separate letters A~F respectively.

Q8: Can KOI2 recognize license plates?

No.

Q9: Does KOI2 have a built-in battery?

It does not contain a battery and can only be powered via the serial interface or the USB interface.

Q10: The screen of KOI2 looks bright in the center and dim around the edges. What is the problem?

This phenomenon is normal because it is a single-chip solution, and the camera uses a 0v2640 camera, which cannot be compared with a general mobile phone camera or computer camera.

Q11: How far can the KOI2 camera see at its maximum distance?

The distance varies depending on the AI function. For example, facial recognition can reach a distance of 1.5 meters. QR code scanning can reach a distance of about 20 centimeters.

Q13: Does KOI2 adjust the focal length of the camera?

The object distance of the KOI camera has been adjusted at the factory and has been coated with a black gel, so it cannot be rotated for adjustment.

Q14: KOI2 Koi doesn't recognize the inserted memory card

KOI (K210 chip) is quite picky with memory cards. It is recommended to use original SanDisk or Kingston memory cards with a capacity of 16 GB or 8 GB

Q15: What is the Reset button on KOI2 for?

Press and hold the Reset button for 2 seconds and KOI will restart.
