Huskylens consumes too much power and gets extremely hot.

Hello everyone,

I have a question about the Huskyles (should be the smaller version). I never had a suitable project and so it sat in a drawer for a long time. Now the time has finally come to unpack them and use them in a project, but I came across a few things that made me wonder.

Firstly, the camera gets very hot (probably due to the processor) and the power consumption seems to be > 1A (face recognition, monitor at 80% brightness). At least the latter contradicts the specifications.

Is the camera broken (although it seems to recognise objects, lines …. ) or am I doing something wrong?

Oh yes, I have connected the camera in various ways (usb, to a MicroBit via 3v3 and i2c etc.)

Thanks and regards
Alexander
