ESP32-CAM for Arduino Makers

ESP32-CAM for Arduino Makers

Description

Description :

This course gives a Deep dive into ESP32 and enables the students/enthusiasts to create very easy and useful applications through ESP32-CAM hardware

We went through different courses on ESP32 and found that ESP32 is taught for IO control or sensor interfacing, which is a very basic usage that can be achieved by hardware like ESP8266 also and you dont require a ESP32 for such control

In Contrast this course takes full advantage of resources available with ESP32 to achieve vision based applications on ESP32 using ESP32-CAM Hardware which comes with a 2 Mega Pixel Senor/Camera – OV2640

ESP32-CAM is a Low cost hardware which is equipped with image sensor, PSRAM, Memory card Interface and Native Wifi and BT support

  • The Course is made hobbyist friendly by choosing the programming language to be most popular Arduino, all the applications or projects which are build in this course use the Arduino IDE
  • Modules like ESP-EYE which may cost you 20-25$, which is big hurdle in learning ESP32 for video processing, to overcome this the course makes use of cost effective modules like ESP32-CAM which is 5 times less costlier than ESP-EYE, the cost saved is utilized for rest of the hardware modules, there by reducing overall prototype costing.
  • Course is completely experimental / lab based and has no boring lectures and introductory graphics
  • The course touches concepts below in the Labs and gradually picks pace to achieve intermediate capstone projects
