ESP32 UNO Board for Arducam Mini Camera Module
Manufacturer   ArduCam
Item Weight   0.8 ounces
first available   April 25,2016
Price   $14.99
ASIN   B013JUKZ48

Arducam now released an ESP32 based Arduino board for Arducam mini camera modules while keeping the same form of factors and pinout as the standard Arduino UNO R3 board. The highlight of this ESP32 board is that it well mates with Arducam mini 2MP and 5MP camera modules, supports Lithium battery power supply and recharging and with build-in SD card slot. It can be an ideal solution for home security and IoT camera applications.

Getting Started ESP32 with Arduino IDE

This chapter shows you how to develop an application for Arducam ESP32 UNO board using Arduino IDE. (Tested on 64 bit Windows 10 machines)

Step1:install Arducam ESP32 support on Windows

1. Starting Download and install the latest Arduino IDE Windows Installer from arduino.cc  Download and install Git from https://git-scm.com  Start Git GUI and run through the following steps: Select Clone Existing Repository:

Figure 4 Select Clone Existing Repository

Select source and destination: Source Location: https://github.com/ArduCAM/ArduCAM_ESP32S_UNO.git Target Directory: C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino/hardware/ ArduCAM/ArduCAM_ESP32S_UNO Click Clone to start cloning the repository:

Figure 5 Clone the Repository


Open C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino/hardware/ ArduCAM/esp32/tools and double-click get.exe


Figure 6 Install ESP32 board

When get.exe finishes, you should see the following files in the directory

Figure 7 ESP32 board directory  Plug your ESP32 board and wait for the drivers to install (or install manually any that might be required)


Step2:Using Arduino IDE

After installation of Arducam ESP32UNO board, you can select this board from the Tool->Board menu. And there several ready to use examples from the File->Examples->ArduCAM. You can use these examples directly or as a starting point to develop your own code.  Start Arduino IDE, Select your board in Tools > Board menu> Figure 8 Board Selection


 Select the example from File->Examples->ArduCAM Figure 6 Example Selection

 Configure the camera setting You need to modify the memorysaver.h file in order to enable OV2640 or OV5642 camera for ArduCAM Mini 2MP or 5MP camera modules. Only one camera can be enabled at a time. The memorysaver.h file is located at C:\Users\[YOUR_USER_NAME]\Documents\Arduino\hardware\ ArduCAM \ArduCAM_ESP32S_UNO\libraries\ArduCAM
