The SeeedStudio Grove Vision AI Module V2 Arm Cortex-M55 & Ethos-U55 (Arduino, RPi) is a sophisticated MCU-based smart vision module powered by the Himax WiseEye2 HX6538 processor. It boasts a dual-core Arm Cortex-M55 and an integrated Arm Ethos-U55 neural network component. The module incorporates Arm Helium technology, which is finely optimized for vector data processing, enabling a significant uplift in DSP and ML capabilities while maintaining low power consumption, making it ideal for battery-powered applications.
The Grove Vision AI V2 has been evaluated against other MCU-based vision AI boards and has demonstrated superior performance with an impressive inference time of just 33 milliseconds and a fast frame rate of 30 FPS, providing a smooth experience. Its efficient power consumption and user-friendly interface make it a premium choice for high-performance vision processing tasks.
This module is now compatible with all Pi cameras through a standard CSI interface and is not limited to vision applications. It also features an onboard PDM microphone for sound applications and includes an SD card slot for convenient storage of images, videos, and identification results.
The board offers a variety of interfaces, including IIC, UART, SPI, and Type-C, allowing for easy connection to popular development platforms such as Seeed Studio XIAO, Grove, Raspberry Pi, BeagleBoard, and ESP-based products. This facilitates further development and seamless integration with various interfaces and data through programming environments like Arduino, Micropython, CircuitPython, and PlatformIO, as well as connectivity to the cloud or dedicated servers such as Home Assistance.
The SenseCraft AI platform supports easy AI model training and deployment with no-code/low-code options, ensuring complete adaptability of the trained models to Seeed products. The platform allows for immediate visualization of identification results on the website, enabling prompt assessment of model performance.
The Grove Vision AI V2 is particularly suited for tinyML applications, where it simplifies the addition of vision AI to smart sensors. Users can deploy off-the-shelf or custom AI models with ease, connecting the device, selecting a model, and viewing identification results without hassle.
Please note that the Grove Vision AI V2 does not include a camera, and users may need to acquire a compatible camera module separately.

Return Conditions
To qualify for a refund under the 30-day return policy, all of the following conditions must be met:
- A valid Return Authorization (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
- The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
- The RA number must be included with the return.
- Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
- Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
- Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
- A $100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
- A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
- Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
- Consumables — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
- Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
- Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odor-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
