ESP32 CAM est un module équipé d’une camera. Grâce à un programme chargé, elle permet de diffuser un flux video sur un réseau.

Programmer le module

La carte n’a pas de connecteur USB. Il faut donc brancher un module FTDI qui fera le lien : 2 fils d’alimentation (+ et -), 2 fils de transfert (Rx et Tx)

Pour que le module puisse recevoir le programme, la broche IO0 doit être reliée à la masse.

Si le programme ne se télécharge pas, essayer avec du 5V sur la broche 5V.

Programmer avec l’IDE Arduino

Pour que la carte soit reconnue, pour avoir les bibliothèques et compiler le programme, il faut ajouter une URL dans le gestionnaire de carte :

https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json

Installer ensuite « Esp32 by Expressif Systems »

Le programme

Le programme est dans les exemples ou sur Github. Renseigner les SSID et MdP du réseau Wifi :
