The ESP32-CAM provides an inexpensive way to build more advanced home automation projects that feature video, taking photos, and face recognition. Learn how to program and build 17 projects with the ESP32-CAM using Arduino IDE DOWNLOAD » Wrapping Up

No IP Address in Arduino IDE Serial Monitor.

Psram error: GPIO isr service is not installed.

Board at COMX is not available – COM Port Not Selected.

Sketch too big error – Wrong partition scheme selected.

Brownout detector or Guru meditation error.

Camera init failed with error 0x20001 or similar.

Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header.

If you’re getting any of the following errors, read our ESP32-CAM Troubleshooting Guide: Most Common Problems Fixed Now you have your video streaming web server up and running with face detection and recognition with the example from the library. After enrolling a new user, it should detect the face later on (subject 0).Īnd that’s it. It will make several attempts to save the face. There are also several camera settings that you can play with to adjust the image settings.įinally, you can do face recognition and detection.įirst, you need to enroll a new face. Unfortunately, this example doesn’t save the photos, but you can modify it to use the on board microSD Card to store the captured photos. You also have the option to take photos by clicking the Get Still button. In your Arduino IDE, go to File > Examples > ESP32 > Camera and open the CameraWebServer example.

Installing the ESP32 Board in Arduino IDE (Mac and Linux instructions).

Installing the ESP32 Board in Arduino IDE (Windows instructions).Follow one of the next tutorials to install the ESP32 add-on, if you haven’t already: So, you need to have Arduino IDE installed as well as the ESP32 add-on. In this example, we use Arduino IDE to program the ESP32-CAM board. Important: Make sure you have your Arduino IDE updated as well as the latest version of the ESP32 add-on. GPIO 4: Data 1 (also connected to the on-board LED)įollow the next steps to build a video streaming web server with the ESP32-CAM that you can access on your local network.The following pins are internally connected to the microSD card reader: When GPIO 0 is connected to GND, the ESP32 is in flashing mode. Additionally, GPIO 0 also plays an important role, since it determines whether the ESP32 is in flashing mode or not. You need these pins to upload code to your board. There are three GND pins and two pins for power: either 3.3V or 5V.
