Description
The module is compatible with Arduino, based on ESP8266. It has the ability to connect to wi-fi and 11 digital inputs/outputs, 10 PWM channels, 1 analog input, as well as popular communication interfaces. This version works with a voltage of 3.3 V, it has a microUSB connector for programming and a reader of the microSD cards.
The device has a connector to connectthe ArduCam Mini, what combined with built-inwi-fi ESP8266module, allows you to create a server with image or photos uploaded live. |
First run
- Download and install the Arduino IDE version 1.6.8 from:www.arduino.cc
- Start the Arduino IDE, select"File" - > "Settings"
- In place Additional URLs for the board manager, specify:
http://www.arducam.com/downloads/ESP8266_UNO/package_ArduCAM_index.json - SelectTools -> Board -> Board manager
- Install the ArduCAM_ESP8266_UNO module (probably at the bottom of the list)
- Since now, boards from the ArduCAM, will be available from the Menu:Tools -> Board
Description of the programming of the board using theArduino IDE, can be found inthe user guide. Examples of programs are available after you install the libraries directly from the Arduino IDE. |
Sample programs
- ArduCAM_Mini_OV2640_Capture (or ArduCAM_Mini_OV5642_Capture)- allows you to create a website using the HTTP protocol which displays the camera image from ArduCam (camera ArduCam can be purchased separately).
- ArduCAM_Mini_OV2640_Capture2SD (or ArduCAM_Mini_ OV5642_Capture2SD)- allows you to save pictures made by the camera on the microSD card (the ArduCam camera and the memory card can be purchased separately).
- ArduCAM_Mini_OV2640_Video2SD (or ArduCAM_Mini_OV5642_Video2SD)- allows for video recording based on JPEG-n format on the microSD card in AVI format (the camera ArduCam and the memory card can be purchased separately).
