k230 and RDK X5 communication
1. Experimental Prerequisites
This tutorial uses the RDK X5 development board, and the corresponding routine path is [14.export\RDK-K230\16_k230_self_learning.py].
K230 needs to run the [14.export\CanmvIDE-K230\16.self_learning.py] program to start the experiment. It is recommended to download it as an offline program.
Things you need:
Windows computer RDK X5 development board USB to TTL module K230 visual module (including TF card with image burned in) Type-C data cable Connection cable
2. Experimental wiring
| k230 vision module | USB to TTL module |
|---|---|
| 5V | VCC |
| GND | GND |
| TXD(IO9) | RxD |
| RXD(IO10) | TXD |

3. Main code explanation
ximport serialcom="/dev/ttyUSB0"ser = serial.Serial(com, 115200)FUNC_ID = 16def parse_data(data): if data[0] == ord('$') and data[len(data)-1] == ord('#'): data_list = data[1:len(data)-1].decode('utf-8').split(',') data_len = int(data_list[0]) data_id = int(data_list[1]) if data_len == len(data) and data_id == FUNC_ID: # print(data_list) category = data_list[2] score = int(data_list[3])/100.0 return category, score elif (data_len != len(data)): print("data len error:", data_len, len(data)) elif(data_id != FUNC_ID): print("func id error:", data_id, FUNC_ID) else: print("pto error", data) return "", -1while True: if ser.in_waiting: data = ser.readline() # print("rx:", data) category, score = parse_data(data.rstrip(b'\n')) print("category:%s, score:%.2f" % (category, score))The above program is for parsing K230 data. Only when it complies with specific protocols can the corresponding data be parsed.
in
- category: is the recognized name
- score: is the score
4. Experimental Phenomenon
- After connecting the cables, the k230 visual module runs offline. After K230 is connected to Canmv IDE, open the corresponding program, click [Save open script to CanMV board (as main.py)] on the toolbar, and then restart K230.

When K230 is turned on, a purple box will appear on the screen. Please align the purple box with the objects to be learned. There are two objects in total. Follow the on-screen prompts to learn the two objects.
After both objects have been learned, if the corresponding object appears in the purple box, the object name and score will be displayed.
- Transfer the program file to the system, open the terminal and enter the corresponding directory, then run the following command to start the program.
xxxxxxxxxxpython3 16_k230_self_learning.py
- When the K230 camera image recognizes an object, the terminal will parse and print out the information transmitted by the K230.
in
category: is the recognized name
score: is the score
As shown in the figure below
