Re: [SOLVED] i2cdetect -y 1 failing with "i2c_designware 808622C1:04: controller timed out"

You appear to be accessing the wrong I2C controller for some reason. That error message shows "808622C1:04" but the correct I2C controller connected to pins 2-3 is "808622C1:01"

In addition to the information requested by DCleri above, can you also post the output of the following 2 commands:

cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/808622C1:01/status  # should be 15, if BIOS settings are ok
ls /sys/devices/pci0000:00/808622C1:01/  # this will give you the correct Linux I2C bus number to use, if the path exists

Please use the following command when scanning the I2C bus on an UP board:
sudo i2cdetect -r -y 5 # Replace 5 with the correct Linux I2C bus number if different - see previous command above

What kind of antenna did you connect?
You should use an active antenna.

Re: Specification for Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR)

Hi dakbias,

I would suggest to go with an UP Squared with AI Core which you can use for the detection.
You also have plenty of digital I/O to use.

This is the board: https://up-board.org/upsquared/specifications/
This is the AI accelerator: https://up-board.org/ai-edge/ai-core/

And you can buy from the UP-shop:
https://up-shop.org/home/270-up-squared.html
https://up-shop.org/featured/204-up-ai-core.html

Soon the AI Core X will also be available, which embeds the new generation Myriad X VPU.

Hi @Marian

Yes that version is fine to update with latest BIOS.

Re: Updating BIOS from Linux

Hi @aaronjin

The only official supported BIOS update tool is the one provided with the BIOS binary.
From our side we never tested the Linux/Ubuntu tools for BIOS flashing.
