Get Keypoints from Huskylens V2 on Raspberry Pi

userHead Birgit.Straker 2026-04-13 00:27:46 264 Views3 Replies

I have a Huskylens V2 connected to a Raspberry Pi 5 via I2C. I run a python script. Reading blocks from Huskylens works ok, but I was never able to get Poses for faces. Even for pretrained poses with displaying the blue frame with ID on the back monitor, I am only able to read standard blocks with the correct ID, but not poses including the keypoint data. Is it not possible to read faces, poses or hands with keypoints or am I doing something wrong?

The Python programs on GitHub have been tested and confirmed to run on Raspberry Pi 4B. The error you received proves that the pinpong library is not compatible with Raspberry Pi 5. You can either use a Pi 4B, or communicate with HUSKYLENS directly via its protocol without pinpong.  https://github.com/DFRobot/DFRobot_HuskylensV2/blob/master/HuskyLens2_Protocol.md

Hi there! Please check the relevant documentation on GitHub, which lists all supported data types available for reading from HUSKYLENS 2.

I get the following error:

The selected development board is RPI
The development board found is None
The development board does not match !!!
 

Could it be pinpong does not support Raspberry Pi 5? Is there something I can patch manually to work around this problem?
