M5CameraF New

SKU:U037

Description

M5CameraF is a development board for image recognition. It features an ESP32(4M Flash + 520K RAM) chip and 2-Megapixel camera (OV2640).

The module offers plenty of storage with an extra 4 Mbyte PSRAM. It also supports image transmission via Wi-Fi and debugging through USB Type-C port.

The hardware comes with preloaded software, programmed by ESP-IDF. It is an application to run Wi-Fi camera. The output image resolution is 600*800, since it's 2MP camera, you sure can optimize the software to output a better resolution image.

what this software can do?

  • Power the board via USB type-C or GROVE
  • Use your phone to Wi-Fi scan an AP name start with 'm5stack-' and click to connect this AP.
  • Open up web browser on your phone and visit 192.168.4.1
  • Then here comes the picture. Video is about 5-6 frames per seconds. not super fast.
