ESP32 WROVER TTGO Fish-Eye T-Camera Development board – 0.96 OLED Display

Espressif has led the way into the interconnected world of IoT and their ESP32 boards are no exception. Makers around the world have enjoyed their abundant features at lower costs and, most importantly, their compatibility with Arduino – the hobbyist’s friend for open-source resources and single-board microcontrollers. Getting to play in Artificial Intelligence with ESP32 already has our Tinkerer hearts aflutter, but now there’s more. The most exciting new feature of this ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board is that it is basically a combination of the ESP32-CAM and the ESP-EYE, but with the addition of the OLED display! With 128 x 64 resolution, you can display sensor, detection, recognition, and other data. Although you can’t expect to view the face image on the OLED display, this ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board has WiFi and Bluetooth for you to easily connect to the camera itself as a WiFi hotspot.

The camera included on this development board is the OV2640 camera, which is surprisingly high quality for the low price that it’s typically offered for. This ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board is equipped with a fish-eye lens, and a variety of effects and other settings exist for you to change the image just as you like it. Also, we cannot forget it’s PIR sensor. The ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board has an inbuilt PIR Sensor, perfect for DIY Projects involving home security as you can program your device to detect motion, capture images when someone is present, or perform facial recognition while uploading it’s images and data of a potential intruder to an online server.

Typical Applications for ESP32 WROVER TTGO T-Camera Development board:

The computing power and multiple Communications modes of the ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board allows this development board to be used for an incredibly wide range of different projects. The array of project possibilities is increased even further by the fact that it also has the OV2640 camera and OLED Display, which can be used for excitingly modern projects like facial recognition, a smart doorbell, and a motion detecting camera. But upgrading your home security isn’t the only thing the TTGO T-Camera can do.

The true use of this Development Board is endless because of the versatility it’s WiFi and Bluetooth capabilities allow. You may integrate the ESP32 TTGO T-Camera Development Board into existing projects and devices, giving things like your fridge the ability to video stream on motion and catch who’s the chocolate thief in the family. Otherwise, entirely new DIY Projects are limited by only our imaginations.
