It not only offers the capability to add a camera interface which doesn't have in some low-cost microcontrollers but also provides the capability to add multiple cameras to a single microcontroller.Ĭapture decent 5MP JPEG images and do 5MP full resolution RAW image capture, making it to be the ideal solution for IoT and scientific image processing applications.Įven more, it can record short movie clips as well. Weve already shown how to set up the ESP32-CAM in Arduino IDE. This means that the Arduino can communicate with the module using I2C.

The connectors part number is BM20B (0.8)-24DP-0.4V (53). If you noticed, the OV7670 camera module has a serial data and clock pin. To replace the camera module you will need to obtain the image sensor (Himax HM-01B0) with the right connector attached to it.
Arducam Mini Module Camera Shield 5 MP OV5642 Camera Module for Arduino is a performance improved version compared to its predecessor Arducam-M-5MP. To detach the camera module from the shield simply use a small flat screwdriver or similar tool and gently pull the metallic plate to detach it from the connector.
