The TV Shield gives your OpenMV Cam a way to display video on a portable screen. It works using a SPI to NSTC chip. The TV Shield is as easy to use as the LCD shield and only requires you to init() it followed by calling display() to set the frame buffer in the NTSC generator chip. Your OpenMV Cam's firmware includes built-in support for the TV shield and OpenMV IDE comes with example code.

Applications

Lets you OpenMV Cam connect to a TV to display what your OpenMV Cam sees. Useful for all sorts of tasks. 

Pinout

Notes: The TV Shield only outputs NTSC video (not PAL - this is because the video generator chip requires a fixed freq crystal). You can get access to the analog video via the 3 holes on the front the board where (video/VIN/GND) are broken out.
