So far a disaster for me. Apparently fried board or something cause google mislabelled the 'Pi' endof the cable, also switched out a new camera cable, - which way does that one go ', what image do I need and where cause nothing runs now. #229

Very sorry to hear it.

There is a chance that the sticker on the cable was applied incorrectly. We have updated the instructions on the website to reflect this. Please follow the Assembly guide, as it is on https://aiyprojects.withgoogle.com/vision/#assembly-guide-1-get-the-vision-kit-sd-image

-Plugging tiny cable the wrong way shouldn't fry Pi or Vision Hat
-All flex cables should be plugged in with pins facing the boards (Pi, Bonnet, Camera).

jhewitt123,

here's a troubleshooting guide. Try to start there and narrow down the problem, we will try to help
https://aiyprojects.withgoogle.com/vision/#assembly-guide-8-troubleshooting

As far as your sdcard image, I would use etcher to write the latest image to the sdcard.

You can use the same one as before, or get a new one - either will work.

@jhewitt123 Could you post a screenshot of the terminal with the error message?

@jhewitt123 Does it work if you run without sudo? For safety, sudo ignores things like the virtualenv.

Alternatively, you could try:

cd ~/AIY-projects-python
sudo env/bin/python src/examples/vision/face_detection_camera.py

(although I haven't tried that myself).

@jhewitt123 Can you clarify what worked for you? If you need the second command I posted using sudo, can you explain what happens if you run without sudo? We'd like to understand why the intructions in the guide aren't working.

Re: SSH, I'd recommend the Pi docs: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/

Let us know if those help and we can amend the instructions on the website.

OK, thanks for bearing with us on this and good luck in the blizzard. Here in Munich, people are complaining that there's not enough snow for good skiing - maybe you could send some our way?

@dmitriykovalev, any idea why @jhewitt123 needs to run with sudo?

@jhewitt123, you can also try to run the following:

  1. Setup our environment:

~/bin/AIY-projects-shell.sh

  1. Run face detection camera demo:

python3 src/examples/vision/face_detection_camera.py

Press Ctrl-C to stop it.
