This camera uses ESP32 camera module, it can be programmed via Arduino IDE just like Arduino. You can even connect other devices to it, like sensors, displays, relays and much more (you'll need some Arduino coding skills for that).
Although it can work without any programming, I recommend to flash it with my modified code (or use code from Arduino IDE examples).
To flash it you'll need a USB to UART converter, for example, this one:
ESP32 Camera module you can get here:
5V LED Modules here:
My modified code that supports LED control here:
Arduino IDE by default doesn't have ESP32 camera, so you'll need to go File/ Preferences and add in Additional Board Manager URLs this:
Then go to Tools/board/Boards manager/ and search for ESP32 and install it. More info here:

Amazing man!!!! AMAZING!

where i can find the source code? im sorry am student

It would be nice if on the web front end the image would stretch to fill regardless of quality

Very nice project! Neat and useful – love it! Thanks mate!

I’ve used those small buck converters with ESP32, and they fail to give the full 500ma required by wifi and processing. You’ll get wifi drop outs and unusual problems. You will be better off with the usual larger aliexpress usual 2amp module.

Great video! Quick, to the point and almost complete. I just wonder the power draw you experience?

Can I use 3. 7 volts
pr0xZen
I wonder this too, the current (or wattage if input voltage has a flexible range).

I liked it, but how did you get 12v up the tree? Perhaps you had solar?

Hope you have used neutral (non-acetic) silicone ! Acetic silicone (the kind that smells vinegar) can ruin your electronics in a few days. Specially in a closed space.

Hello thank you for this beautiful work. My question is: How do you switch the LED on or off via your sketch?
Is there a button, I can’t find anything.
Greetings Bert
Ben
surely software.

Yooo i’m so glad this video comes up in my recommendation
Thanks man

For the power up there on the tree do you use battery or from where?
Rob P
The part I found most impressive was soldering all those little terminals

This answered a lot of my questions about ESP32 Cam, thanks.

все работает эз экспектид, спасибо за труды! правда задержки по wifi заметны.

Thanks for the walk-through of the uploading process. But, you jumped right over how to add the ESP camera to iSpy. What camera settings are needed to add this camera to iSpy/Agent? Thanks.

This was a very good demonstration. Thank you.

This was very interesting. But, does anyone (or the author) have a suggestion for a module that can output >=24-30FPS at >=720p?
Also, what was the FPS on this module at around 720p? I just figure that’s a decent minimum to see someone’s face if needed for surveillance.

What is the purpose of the capacitor you added at 05:10? Additional power to enable a safe poweroff shell?
