Product Overview
The ESP32-WROVER CAM board combines a dual-core ESP32 with PSRAM, an OV2640 2MP camera and a microSD slot, for wireless camera and vision projects.
It captures stills up to 1600 × 1200, streams MJPEG over Wi-Fi and saves images locally, programmed from Arduino IDE, ESP-IDF or MicroPython.
