I connected an OpenMV camera to a LEGO SPIKE Prime hub to make it follow my face around the room. Both run Micropython code and they communicate over UART. Then I proceeded to use the i2c capabilities to connect a non-LEGO sensor. The LEGO hubs do not natively support I2C so I used OpenMV as a bridge.
