## The Board
50
-
The included HM-01B0 camera module has been pre-configured to work with the OpenMV libraries provided by Arduino. Based on the specific application requirements, the Portenta Vision Shield is available in two configurations with either Ethernet or LoRa® connectivity. Ethernet is designed for integration of the Portenta into wired networks and providing high bandwidth. In situations requiring long-range operation at low bandwidth, LoRa® connectivity is the way to go. The multi-core processor of the Portenta H7 makes embedded vision possible by minimizing the data bandwidth required.
