background
foreword
Lenses CSK4002, with its advanced AI algorithm, excellent price-performance ratio, and superior head-and-shoulders tracking capability, occupies more than 80% of the gimbal market, and its product sales channels cover major e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Douyin, and Pinduoduo. The major solution providers and brand manufacturers that have cooperated with Lens, with the support of strong software and hardware capabilities, have been able to go against the current and achieve impressive results despite the unsatisfactory market environment. In view of the CSK4 series achieved It was a huge success, and the upgraded version of the 6 series products is even more exciting. After seeing the open class and development kit trial activities jointly organized by the Jishu community and Lingsi Technology, I participated in the whole process with the mentality of learning and looking for product entry points , and was honored to have the opportunity to try out the development kit.

advanced development
For this trial, the basic functions and operations of the CSK6 visual AI development kit that I have initially understood have basically reached my goal. Due to work reasons, there is no further research, and only when the company deploys actual product development. Further development work.
In terms of product design, CSK6 can be used as the main body to develop offline products such as gimbals and sitting posture detection. It can also be used with WiFi chips, such as Allwinner XR872 , to develop online products, and communicate with XR872 through serial port instructions. Realize the playback and pause of audio, alarm for parents in sitting position, etc. In a word, with the strong software and hardware technology and strong technical support of Lenses, any product form can be the best.
conclusion
I am very grateful to the Jishu community and Lingsi Technology for this event, which allowed me to experience the excellent functions and development process of the CSK6 series for the first time, and provide a reference direction for subsequent product positioning and development. I believe that the CSK6 series will definitely be able to achieve success in the AI chip market. shine.
