- | Pixy (CMUcam5) is a partnership between the Carnegie Mellon Robotics Institute and Charmed Labs. Pixy comes from a long line of CMUcams, but Pixy got its real start as a [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/254449872/pixy-cmucam5-a-fast-easy-to-use-vision-sensor|Kickstarter campaign]]. It first started shipping in March of 2014, but it’s already become **the most popular vision system in history**! Pixy is funded exclusively through sales, so thank you for making Pixy a success! You can watch the original Kickstarter video below — it’s a good introduction! | + | Pixy (CMUcam5) is a partnership between the Carnegie Mellon Robotics Institute and Charmed Labs.
