Products & Technology Complaints and Suggestions
#1

Hello,
can you please advise on a customer complaint regarding 2 kits with P/N: 110110044 which we sold to a customer ?

It seems the kits were complete as per the attached picture,

but our customer claims:

CAMERA MODULE AVAILABLE AS STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION:

https://www.mouser.de/ProductDetail/Seeed-Studio/110110044?qs=sGAEpiMZZMsZO

J0x%252BXAYs7%2F3KGuSzFtUxazg4wI%2FyEH4VkbHVRTElA%3D%3D

AND ALSO PER:

BUT INSTEAD OF THIS I RECEIVED A WRONG MODULE: ZV-T01-GA4.4

As a result, the whole kit becomes unusable for the actual purpose of image recognition, since the software support for the wrong module is missing. Please provide me with the correct OV2640 module.

Can you possibly advise if the camera module has been changed in the kit?
The mentioned software doesn’t seem to support the included module, per the above claim…
Is there possibly an updated software version available that does support the mentioned ZV-T01-GA4.4 camera ?

Thank you.
Best regards
Adnan

It appears that the long flex camera is an OV0328.
Sipeed is shipping that with their Maix Nano kits.

I have not found any Arduino libraries yet.

I have the same problem. Camera supplied is GC0328, but advertised (also by Seeed, still at this moment) is OV0328.
Under Arduino, these are not interchangeable. I found the library to get the selfie demo working, but the AI demo (mobilenet) is not working. Sipeed support is not answering. As I purchased this kit from Seeed, not from Sipeed, I expect Seeed to step in. Either provide instructions to get this working, ship the correct camera, or have Sipeed to provide proper support. Last option is of course to return the kit and refund, but I am not aiming at that at all.
