PIX Optical Flow Sensor Module Smart Camera for PX4 Pixhawk Flight Control System

The PIX Optical Flow Sensor Module Smart Camera is an advanced sensor designed for the PX4 Pixhawk Flight Control System. It utilizes optical flow technology to estimate the aircraft's ground velocity by analyzing the movement of ground textures and visible features. This capability is particularly beneficial for indoor navigation and low-light conditions where GPS signals may be weak or unavailable. 

Key Features: 

1. High-Resolution Imaging: Equipped with a 752x480 pixel MT9V034 machine vision CMOS sensor featuring a global shutter, enabling precise motion detection.  
2. Enhanced Light Sensitivity: Operates effectively in low-light environments without the need for additional illumination, thanks to its superior light sensitivity.  
3. Integrated Gyroscope: Includes an onboard 16-bit gyroscope with a 780 Hz update rate, providing accurate angular velocity measurements to complement optical flow data.  
4. Flexible Connectivity: Supports USB serial communication up to 921600 baud, facilitating high-speed data transfer and live camera view integration with QGroundControl.  
5. Compact Design: Designed for easy integration into various drone configurations, ensuring compatibility with the PX4 Pixhawk Flight Control System.
