Description

Unit CamS3-5MP is a compact camera unit based on the ESP32S3 module, supporting WiFi cloud image transmission. It is equipped with 8M PSRAM and 16M Flash memory, paired with a custom 5-megapixel camera (PY260), offering a DFOV of 88°, capable of capturing photos at a maximum resolution of 2592 x 1944. The built-in Micro SD card slot can be used to store images and other information. The built-in PDM microphone allows for sound recording. The HY2.0-4P port at the bottom exposes the S3 internal D+/D- pins, supporting firmware updates or USB serial communication via the M5Grove2USB-C module. The onboard 2x 1x3 pin headers expose the ESP32S3 program download interface. The factory firmware provides complete shooting and uploading to EZData, allowing users to easily configure and achieve remote free image monitoring. This product is suitable for applications in remote monitoring, time-lapse photography, industrial automation, and more.
