    Thank you so very much. I have been going insane trying to get this to work all week before a friend sent me your video instructions. Very clear and easy to follow and you have a wonderful voice.

    Thank you for bringing the ESP32-CAM to my attention! Got one fitted this weekend and it's great.

    This is very impressive ! I tend to use Raspberry Pi / Pico devices and had decided to order a couple of ESP32 CAM devices to see if I could get it to work although having had no experience with ESP or Arduino. I got them somehow operational using firmware floating at the internet and using Micropython scripts. Just followed your step to step guideline and have the ESP now connected to a W10 PC, can easily adjust the cam settings. Will now try to get it to work with ov5640 lenses. Thank you for making and sharing this video.

    Great video. I did the same, infact I recieved the IP address also but when I opened it from chrome browser and pressed the Start streaming no video is obtained. Only black screen is shown with save button in red colour at top as shown in your video. Please tell me where am I lagging to get the stream ?

      Internal antenna has bad Wifi connection. Have you tried to test it with AP mode?
      I'm using AP mode now just to test my code. I'm able to stream it with acceptable frame rate. In the future, I have to desolder resistor to use external antenna if I need internet access.

      @@jumbo999614 Its actually a zero ohm resistor and if you are going to use the U.FL connector instead of the printed antenna on the PCB you should remove the zero ohm resistor BUT place it from the center of the 3 V shaped solder points towards the U.FL connector (or just use a strand of wire) else the connector won't do sh*t. I would advice to just leave the resistor and not bother with an U.FL antenna/stick and just cut those 2 parallel copper traces going to the PCB antenna so you have enough space left to solder a tiny coax to that and at the end cut away the ground/mantle according to 2.4 GHz specs. (about 27 mm) this is so much easier and no bulky antenna stick. UV glue or hot glue the coax to the board for extra rigidness.

    I bought 5 ESP32 cameras.
    I wanted to turn them into surveillance cameras for my home, but I couldn't find any tutorials that would allow me to view multiple cameras in a live video stream. But at most, I found a video where a presence sensor is attached, which gives the camera an impulse to take a picture, when an intruder walks past the camera.
    Do you know how I could turn them into "surveillance cameras" ?

      that's what I am trying to figure out, unfortunately this youtuber also didn't tell whether it worked or not. at 4:45 he was using the MB board and then abruptly started using cables and what not at 8:08
      what a joke

    I need your help with facial recognition. Currently, the component takes a duration of 15 seconds to recognize a face. How can I reduce this time period?
    I would greatly appreciate a video showcasing facial recognition using the new library version 2.0.14, as there doesn't seem to be any existing videos featuring this updated library. This would be a highlight. Thank you

    • @nevermind-wp3bf
      @nevermind-wp3bf 28 днів тому

      This kind of camera has got a small amount of PSRAM and SPIFFS memory.
      In fact, in the latest sketch from the Arduino IDE the face detection is deactivated for this module becouse of its small memory. If you want that sketch to work with face detection you need an upgrade like esp32-S3-cam

    • @nevermind-wp3bf
      @nevermind-wp3bf 28 днів тому

      Probably you've installed a buggy software. Try to install something else. By the way, if you've got the esp32-cam-mb adapter, which is recomended, you can avoid crashing at startup by presing the buttons from the sides of the adapter to put the esp32-cam in the download mode.
      The combination is... first press the left button, while keeping that button pressed, press the right button, then release the left button and after that release the right button.
      This will put the esp32-cam in download mode and avoid crashing by running buggy codes and you can flash another code.
      Also, if nothing works you can use esptool to erase thr firmware and reinstall it back... Be carefull! You need to download the firmware otherwise you will not be able to use it.
