- It covers configuring a security camera system with ESP32-CAM.
How you configure your system depends on your purpose. For example, the reason I previously configured an ESP32-CAM system with a WebSocket server and client is to allow multiple clients. In this project, the ESP32-CAM works like an IP camera as HTTP or RTSP server. And you can connect them through the application.
[Main functions]
- View videos of connected multiple ESP32-CAM on one screen
- Save video to AVI file
- Capture Images while watching a live view

Fantastic result thank you. I just need to purchase a few more esp32 cams.
super cool! will try this today! great job!
The content of this channel worth millions ❤ very well explained videos, definitely a channel I will support 👍
Damn. You're stressing me out. cool project again.
Thank-You for giving us your time...
Thanks for this.
Very good work. I'm planning building a system with an esp32-cam to monitor my mother in law. She has Alzheimer and when is on the bedroom taking naps, she get's up and sits inside the closet staying their. The idea is to generate an alarm to an app using motion detection. So, although your app is nice, i will have to build one that receives motion detection alarms and deploys some king of sound alarm.
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope her illness doesn't get worse. Motion detecting is possible with the ESP32-CAM, but there are many limitations to including multiple functions. When I get a chance, I'll try it too. thank you
nice app
Great work man.
I have been working on integrating ds 1302 clock module with Esp32 cam so that it can start recording at a specific time. But this will be helpful. Thanks once again. But I'm having challenges integrating the two, I don't know where I'm getting it wrong or ds1302 is using SPI communication interface?
What pins are used to connect ESP32-CAM and DS1302?
This is amazing! Does this system can support stream video over the internet? Is like gather technics from previous video part 2 and this one to get it from internet?
It's possible, but the ESP32-CAM must have a static IP so that it can be accessed from the external network.
Thanks Eric, I appreciated ❤🙌
Can you create a p2p connect on internet between esp32 camera and mobile or browser ? Thank you so much
This is amazing! Can you lower the latency to 0.5s or max 1s? Other question is if I use it with a portable 4g wifi hotspot, may I use it as an fpv camera on my modell airplane? 1s latency should not hurt, but I dont know if should I use Zerotier or not because the esp and the 4g hotspot is moving, change cell towers, and I do not onow if it disconnect on a poor 4g area and after it reconnects, does it get a new ip adress or not. Thx!
Thanks.
It's not the network latency but network caching. This time can be decreased, but it was hardcoded. So I need to update this ESP32-CAM Viewer app to empower users to set it.
In the case of RTSP, reconnection is supported, but in the case of HTTP Stream, it seems that a manual restart is required. Also, if the IP is changed, you have to reconnect manually.
@@ThatProject Thank you!
hi bro
I want to increase the functionality of the app and add some other things to it. Where can I download the source app for Android?
This is already a super system but I have few more ideas to solve the big files problems :
1) The most important, change the saved framerate (even 2fps can be enough for some purpose).
2) Nearly equal importance, delete the saved files automatically after a delay (one week for example).
3) Less important, change the saved resolution.
Thank you for your comments. I’ll refer to it in the next update.
@@ThatProject I already did the framerate limit but it also affect the view as I limit the framerate from the camera directly.
In tab app_httpp.cpp, line 252
" while(true){
if(millis()>(lastStreamFrame+1000/maxFPS))" (the if finish just before the while finish)
Line262
"else {
_jpg_buf_len = fb->len;
_jpg_buf = fb->buf;
lastStreamFrame = millis();"
@@bl08 Wow. Thanks for your code. I'll definitely try this way.
@@ThatProject Or better, don't try because I already did it!
That code is able to adjust framerate between 1 and 30 directly on the camera IP address with a slider button like it is for some other controls, the stream is immediatly affected by the setting.
Probably for security cam the default value should be 1 (minimum), it's possible to adjust the default value in the code however I didn't succeed to store the data with the "save" button.
I tested with 2FPS in VGA and file from VLC is 15,4Mo for 10 minutes meaning +-93Mo for an hour.
Just let me the time to add a relay button because I want enable IR light when brightness is hight (so ambient light low for night vision with IR filter from lens removed). To clean the code, and I'll give you link here if you'r interested.
@@bl08 Sure. I think you do a great job.
Is there any limitation to make them also save the video in their micro SD slots? Is there any future implementation for that?
If you google it to save a video to the SD card, you can find the way. Already it has a solution so maybe I won't play for it. IDK.
Man !
How many skills and languages do you know ? Post a vedio of your journey until now.
Hi, Can I conect to ESP32 a analog camera? brand : runcam... typical camera for FPV, airsoft... I have 5 cameras from other projects, and i would like to use them intead of throwing away.
I can't give you a proper answer because I've never used an analog camera. Honestly, I don't think there is any way to use them on the ESP32.
did you need the external antenna ? or just the on-board antenna ?
I don't need any external antenna. it's using WiFI and it's the on-board antenna.
Old tablets, raspberry pi2.3 also have enough power to display good fps picture. I have tested example a raspi 3 board+cam and gived hd quality stream. I just dont like these solutions, because we need run anytime a separate app manualy, wait till boot the OS android/raspian and avoid for fully charged battery or for 220V power supply. The main problem with Esp32 the spi bus limitation. Thats why i still wait That Project to test the remote video stream speed with the parallel display on esp32-s3 :>
haha okay.
@@ThatProject Im not sure what will be the best solution for my door eye project, order a uno 8 bit parallel tft shield and use the million wire to get better fps or order a esp32-s2/3 and try stream the esp32 cam server. If i good know after watch lot video, whatever i do esp32 have itself hw limitation, better picture resolution than 320x with good fps is impossible or not?. Thats why for me a big question these new combined esp32/parallel tft boards how can handle if receive more jpg picture (what simulate for us the video stream). But make this test just if you have yourself plan to test. Currently nobody tryed this out,, just running fps and object tests.
@@ThatProject try ispy soft
Someone do a tutorial how to code it
can i supply with a single power source to all eps32 cam?
I think there will be no problem if you use a general power supply (supports up to 5A).
How can I make my ESP32 Cam accessible from anywhere? Without the same ip
Static IP is required. In order to connect using this project, each ESP32-CAM must be connected to Static IP, which is a very difficult task. Please check this out. th-cam.com/video/CpIkG9N5-JM/w-d-xo.html
how many cameras can be connected and can a ESP or raspberry be used to view the cameras rather than a tablet?
Many connections require a lot of resources. It is not possible to connect many ESP32CAMs to ESP32, and an environment such as RPI or PC is required.
Could 4 -6 be connected for example.
@@itolond The connection of 6-8 does not seem to be a problem with an SBC such as Raspberry Pi.
Hello, how do you see all cameras at one? Is it an app?
Yes. the app connects the ESP32CAMs via RTSP protocol. Each ESP32CAM becomes a server.
Can't get no video to stream on app do i need use your github code?
First, connect ESP32CAM to your PC via RTSP or HTTP and check the incoming image. There is nothing special about the app. If there is no problem on your PC, you will see the same incoming image in the app.
Rtp Broadcast support ?
As I recall, maybe not.
It would be nice if I could understand you better.
Can this work with smart cameras?
Maybe it works If the smart cameras support RTSP.
App Store?
This used to be only on Google Play but is currently not available.
Hi Eric! Can you edit APK for Android 4 too?
Edit: anyone looking for viewing options you can use VLC player for Android 4
It cannot be worked below API level 23.
@@ThatProject oh i see... It looks like im gonna throw it out at the end this tablet 😅
@@thenextproblem8001 😂
@@ThatProject I'm currently adding night vision to esp32cam right now. My wife asked me if i can buy baby monitor and i said "yeah i dont know i think i can do it" there is no going back for me man 😆
@@thenextproblem8001 Cool. It's time to show your power to your wife.
wifi not connect how to fixed sir
Are you sure your ESP32-CAM is ready?
There is an error flagged: ssid_NOT FOUND and password_NOT FOUND. How can I solve this?
Sounds like you need to check your WiFi credentials.
I did check. Uncommented and add a working router's credentials but still with the same error
I checked online and couldn't find a better way to debug it
What configuration to do in the WiFi credentials. Since it uses autowifi, do I need to uncomment and add the said and password?
@@abdulrahmanbabatunde5427 I don't use AutoWiFi. Remove all the parts related to the Auto WiFi, just make your ESP32CAM connected to your WiFi Hub.
I have somehow succesfully maked lovyan03 display driver usable, with QVGA resolution, picture looks fluent, however not flll out the full 3.5" display. Here is my esp32-cam + SPI 3.5" ili9488 direct video stream /door eye project test: th-cam.com/video/ywPePmnl6rg/w-d-xo.html
That's cool.
@@ThatProject thank you, im still working on it to rotate the picture, because i have trouble understand lovyan japan comments and a non working overcomplicated examples:> I have thinked again and again about the 8bit parallel connection, the main problem, im not sure esp32-cam have enough pin to connect a 8 bit parallel. display directly, maybe only way the websocket/stream from another esp32. The main question inside me with the 8 bit parallel display can give me/us more speed bust or however the connection faster the esp32 itself have no more cpu power display better resolution/faster picture.
@@XPERIA80 Unfortunately, the ESP32-CAM (AI Thinker) board doesn't have enough pins to drive an 8-bit display. Jpeg decoding is also important for faster image acquisition. Anyway, I think what you've been working on is the best we can do right now.
@@ThatProject Yeah i see myself touch pins is not used and 4-5 pins remains on esp32 cam. Here comes, if you have time to test your new combined parallel tft board, what will be, if this esp32 s3 receive from wifi the esp32 cam picture. Makerlabs created a cam board but these have also spi connection to tft.
