# Run openpilot with webcam on PC
|
|
|
|
What's needed:
|
|
- Ubuntu 24.04 ([WSL2 is not supported](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/issues/34216)) or macOS
|
|
- GPU (recommended)
|
|
- One USB webcam, at least 720p and 78 degrees FOV (e.g. Logitech C920/C615, NexiGo N60)
|
|
- [Car harness](https://comma.ai/shop/products/comma-car-harness)
|
|
- [panda](https://comma.ai/shop/panda)
|
|
- USB-A to USB-A cable to connect panda to your computer
|
|
|
|
## Setup openpilot
|
|
- Follow [this readme](../README.md) to install and build the requirements
|
|
|
|
## Connect the hardware
|
|
- Connect the camera first
|
|
- Connect your computer to panda
|
|
|
|
## GO
|
|
```
|
|
USE_WEBCAM=1 system/manager/manager.py
|
|
```
|
|
- Start the car, then the UI should show the road webcam's view
|
|
- Adjust and secure the webcam
|
|
- Finish calibration and engage!
|
|
|
|
## Specify Cameras
|
|
|
|
Use the `ROAD_CAM` (default 0) and optional `DRIVER_CAM`, `WIDE_CAM` environment variables to specify which camera is which (ie. `ROAD_CAM=1` uses `/dev/video1`, on Ubuntu, for the road camera):
|
|
```
|
|
USE_WEBCAM=1 ROAD_CAM=1 system/manager/manager.py
|
|
```
