Product Introduction
The BPI-D1 is the smallest open-source development board around, with a
built-in HD mini camera. At 36mm (w) x36mm (l) and weighing in at 10g, it’s
much smaller and lighter than any mini-cam or camera board out there. It
allows you to create and customize your own mini-cam and can be a valuable
part of any cool hardware you are working on. The D1 prides itself on providing
high-resolution image quality: Both video and photos are captured at
1280x720p with a video capture rate of 30 fps.
The BPI-D1 is designed specifically to give you all the multimedia tools you
need in one small package. Simply connect to an external battery source (with
your desired power capacity), and the D1 does the rest: there’s a HD mini-cam,
audio sensor, microphone, CPU, GPIO, WiFi, and more - you name it, the D1
has it.

Use Method
1. How to record a video
In a fully charged or connecting micro - power USB cable, press the D1S
"primary key" button, D1S will automatically start the default set of video
application. Start recording the video and sound and generate file storage to TF
card. Recorded 30 minutes to automatically generate and save for a video file.
Click the "primary key" button, then manually stop recording the current task
and generate a complete video file, start the next record files at the same time.
[Reminder]: Micro-USB interface supports USB flash disk connected through USB female port of
OTG cable, when there is no TF card, support recording videos directly to the external USB drive.
2. How to connect to the AP
One-click connect the WiFi-AP
1) The USB-WiFi module is connected to the USB interface of OTG, and
the OTG port micro-USB is connected to D1S.
2) Micro-USB power cable is connected to the D1S and open the D1S
power;
3) Long click the "function key" (3 seconds), then start the D1S WPS
connection function, if press the WPS button on the AP at the same
time, D1S will achieve a key to connect to the network environment AP through
WPS function.
Connect to the specified AP
The USB-WiFi module is connected to the USB interface of OTG. Press the
D1S "primary key" button, green LED will keep long bright after flashing
about 8 seconds; it means D1S work in AP mode.
1) Connect any mobile devices (e.g. smartphone, tablet or computer) to
the WiFi connection “SSID= BPI_D1_XXYYZZ” and enter the default
password “12345678”.
[Reminder]: "BPI_D1_XXYYZZ" is D1S's default AP name; "XXYYZZ" represents
the WiFi MAC address of the last 6. If you restore the factory settings in the
settings page, the SSID name will be reset to "ak39".
