Help! Using an Arduino instead of esp32 dev. board ... at 1:33, you "connect EN pin to Ground". What is the equivalent of the "EN Pin" on the Arduino Uno?
Very cool trick to flash the cam. Thanks. FYI: You can also flash your cam via OTA after the first flash. I have not tried that yet, but it should work.
liked the code and buying 4 more to add to 2, I already got programmed with the arduino example sketch. thanks ... plus if you hit the reset after programming it you can get the ipaddress from the serial monitor in arduino.
Davy, when I take a picture using the code you provided, it seems to be one frame behind. Can you address this? Is there a simple workaround? I can just take a second picture immediately, but it's a bit of a pain....

But what if you don’t want to have to go to a browser to view it? Can you just connect a screen to the esp32CAM module and view it directly? Of so, how would you go about that?
is internet needed at all to access the esp AP live feed mode from say the cellphone user? as in the phone only works with wifi not sim card so no network. can we use the phone to find the AP from the esp32 and tap into it just like any other wifi public network and instead of getting wifi i get a webpage that provides live feed as long as im withing proximity ? because this sounds like something im looking for if so!
@@DavyBot wow i have asked this question in allot of videos similar to yours, feels good to be acknowledge when a question is asked so thanks Davy! very appreciated
during compilation of your sketch i get error " class WebServer' has no member named 'setContentLenght- I am using arduino ide ver 1.85- thanks in advance for your advice
Thank you, I bought some with the es32-cam-mb had and was unable to flash. with your wiring, even do i got an error during the flash process once i rebooted it had my code in it.
You don't need to add any wiring when using the mb module. Just attach the cam to the mb, and insert line from computer to the mb. then just upload the code. Simple (:>
Hi, I'm starting with ESP32 and I'd like to use a CAM, but I need to rotate the image 90 degrees. Please advise where in the code and how to edit please? Thank you
I think this has a minimum current of around 6mA (not uA) in deep sleep as it's not optimised for low power. Do you know if you could use an ESP32 on a more barebones breakout board with your own OV camera and be able put the camera to sleep when not using it and achieve the ~10uA of the deep sleep? What about this esp32-cam drains that additional current?
really like the video i hope you get to make money with this since the time you had to put in was a lot i think sorry for bad english and th ank you for amazing video you have good qualitly of everything so its easy to understand like how you explain slow i get to work and watch and dont have to pause 30 times please keep that for fufutre
Hello Davy, Thanks for the video. Im completely new to ESP32. I have a big doubt in my mind... Please show some light.... I want to feed AV/HDMI output signal of a DSLR or Mirrorless Camera --> ESP32, And I want transmit over wirelessly to My Smartphone or a FPV monitor..... Is it possible to do this.... Gratitude
Thank you very much for the explanation, teacher, I loved the video, I'm a big one on the channel, but I have a question How can I view images from the camera while on another network, ex: through my 4G and I see everything that happens with esp 32 in my house that is connected to wifi
You'd need to use a dyndns service (unless your internet provider gives you a static IP) and forward a port on your router although as the video explains, that could have security implications.
Hi Davy, thanks for the video. I can't find that exact code you are using on this video. I don't know if it's changed or what. Could you post that exact code somewhere that I could download it... Please. or point me to a link. Thanks. :)
Okay Davy, I see your 36-line program, it looks great and I want to try it out. So now I have to type it all? I do not see a link to that code. Or am I missing something? Maybe I will try some OCR trickery, I really don't want to type.
i tried ICSTATION and the site is not secure so my browser wouldn't let me buy anything. went to TINDIE and they are sold out GITHUB does have the library so that much works good video, I just wish I could follow up on the links X(
I want to actually do some processing on the image that's captured. Basically I want to scan the pixels of the image, using some Arduino code running on the board, and locate pixels with a specific RGB color. Can that be done directly on the ESP32-CAM module?
Hi I finally got it working but I have a new problem, if the esp32cam gets disconnected it won't reconnect to the router/hotspot/network automatically and I have to reach the esp32cam and restart it by hand. What if I want to fix it in some place high? Do I really need to restart it every time? Can't it just get reconnected to the network like any other normal device? And btw can I add multiple network credentials to esp32cam code so if one is not in range it would connect to the other ones.
it's an issue with the handshake between router and esp32 im pretty sure. i think maybe it tries to reauth and fails, but works connecting the first time. i had a similar issue and switched to access point mode.
You get that error with the same code shown in this video? If so then you're either using a different version of the esp32cam which may require a different library if it's not configured the same, or your board might be malfunctioning. You might have better luck submitting an issue to the Github account of the camera library if it's a compatibility issue because I bet the author would like to support more models.
@@davywtf I am using the same version of esp32cam I don't know the reason of this error, I tried other code but always I have the same problem PSRAM int failed 😐 I need to fix the problem please help me I have an academic project to present
@@AzharAouni Like I said, it may be that the device has a hardware issue in which case I can't help you. It may be that you're using the wrong board setting in Arduino. Or it may be that the model is slightly different (depending on where you get them they can use slightly different parts and pin configurations). Again, go to the esp32cam library's github account and open an issue there since they're the ones who wrote the library code.
Yes and no. My library has a Config::setRgb() function to select RGB565 mode. It's basically a BMP but without the BMP header. If you need the BMP header, please open an issue on my GitHub repository and explain your use case.
why not made working code to arduino ide ??? why all code have fail and broken error error alltime. apps httpd.cpp file have lto error in text ewery version ,have idiot write this code ?? why not newer working, alltime compile and error lot. not can burtn to esp32 because not compile newer.
Since it's WiFi based the range is pretty limited but I was able to double the range by using another ESP32 as a proxy in one test. I did it by putting the proxy node in dual Access Point + Station mode and having it repeat all requests, extending the effective range. You could certainly do more proxy nodes to get better range but at a certain point it would probably be more cost/performance efficient to just run some Ethernet cable.
Mesh configurations are possible with WiFi. I didn't do anything that fancy, just had one proxy device relaying all HTTP requests. But Espressif has some info on setting up WiFi mesh applications using ESP32: github.com/espressif/esp-mdf
I'm thinking that this would be handy to put in my basement so I can check how much heating fuel I have without having to go outside, digging out the door and going down there. :-D
Why did you show your good working ino file with local AP_SSID and AP_PASSWORD setup without giving a downloadlink to that file? Instead only showing a link to an original unchanged llibrary file that simply won't work without any changes that first have to be made. Instructions like: Clone this repository under $HOME/Arduino/libraries directory do not help in anyway to understand how to simply use these cheap CAM modules. After 2 days of effortless reading and testing all presented internet examples, I'm beginning to question if my cheap China made module is okay? Uploading all found code was never any problem but explanations like these TH-cam videos are no help at all because too many questions are never answered when it doesn't work! Even just knowing what all the right needed Arduino libraries are makes this Arduino product a very complicated and bad experience! Instruction videos like all these short TH-cam explanations are a complete waste of time. Just a good PDF instruction manual with the right working code would make all the difference! This way there is no quick start at all!
After 2 days of wasted experimenting, uploading, upgrading and testing the Arduino 1.8.13 IDE I found Rui Santos's standalone AP Webcamserver version that worked right away from the given ino file! PS: The discount ordering code looks nice until the shipping costs are shown which are way too expensive!!

But what if you don’t want to have to go to a browser to view it? Can you just connect a screen to the esp32CAM module and view it directly? Of so, how would you go about that?
Can the ESP 32 CAM do everything the ESP 32 is capable of, like be an AP and web server.
Yes, it is a normal ESP32, just with an added camera. Any code for normal ESP32 boards will run (including MicroPython, for instance).
How do I find the “description below”? Sorry for such a basic question.
is internet needed at all to access the esp AP live feed mode from say the cellphone user? as in the phone only works with wifi not sim card so no network. can we use the phone to find the AP from the esp32 and tap into it just like any other wifi public network and instead of getting wifi i get a webpage that provides live feed as long as im withing proximity ? because this sounds like something im looking for if so!
That's correct. In AP mode you can connect to it directly without needing to connect to the internet at all.

Sadly you can't. The RST button is not on any pin header.
