ESP32 CAM Blynk Multiple Camera Surveillance

[@daniellamas647]

Very, Very interesting, Fast and clear description of How to do very interesting thing with 2 eps32-cam

[@mawamatakama5150]

The fact that you don't remove the plastic protector from the lenses and using the cameras with it, hurts my brain.

[@meierthomas]

Great project. The icing on the cake would be a battery powered solution (lipo) so that the camera is totally wireless

[@meierthomas]

@Greggy Ramirez No but based on what you say should I be looking?

[@BuildItWithBenjamin]

@Greggy Ramirez I would look into Lithium Ion technology, e.g., 18650/21700 cells. They are safer than lipos and have a higher energy density.

[@chrishayes5755]

the icing on the cake would be having clear video and not 3 choppy frames per second

[@y_x2]

When programming the ESP32 board, the jumper on the FTDI USB board must be placed on 3.3V! You must change (or check) if the 0 ohm resistor is placed correctly to use the external antenna. You should remove the plastic in front of the camera lens!

[@HarshitSingh-mg7zt]

Is removing the plastic compulsory? I don't think it would stop the cam from working...? I was actually unable to make it work, and i also didn't removed it's cover yet...just so that I can return it, incase

[@cdbetten7188]

@@HarshitSingh-mg7zt i got it to work, what's your problem I might be able to help

[@HarshitSingh-mg7zt]

@@cdbetten7188 thanks😊 But I sorted it out myself already Actually, my board was faulty, so i replaced it, and it worked first try! :)

[@satyananda4389]

@@cdbetten7188 What antena do u use?

[@SamyKalem]

Hello, I think you forgot to change the resistor position to use the external antenna. You have to put it in the direction of the antenna.

[@sanjayursal5330]

Great Tutorial have following questions : Q> How good is ESP32 Cam ? What is the pixel value of the images (Layman's terms would I be able to recognize faces) Q. How good is your case for external use ? Q. What does the Blynk do ? Q. How can I set-up the UI on my computer screen instead of a phone.

[@olafschermann1592]

1600x1200. Just use a webbrowser. Blink is just a LED light for illumination of dark rooms in the night.

[@trizedlyza]

The Blynk software is an IoT server on the internet so you could access the board remotely (not to be confused with Amazon's Blink cameras). Blynk is free for 2 devices, $7/mo for 3 users and 10-20 devices. Blynk also seems to offer compiling and "low code" drag-n-drop coding.

[@andrewdoherty737]

Adding an external aerial you need to move the position of the 0 ohm resistor next to the aerial socket.

[@spulbergeorge6139]

You have to change a resistor to another position to work with the External Antenna not with internal Antenna

[@franklinpastranart]

True, I was about to comment this

[@wandaniel4596]

Can you explain more about this?

[@IMRANKHAN-we9un]

External Antennas are useless in this project. Yo missed the configuration brother.

[@wandaniel4596]

Pls anyone explain more about this

[@MichaelTayrov]

@@wandaniel4596 Even if you attach an external antenna, the ESP32 will still use the built-it one until you move the sma resistor to a new position. Just google for "esp32-cam antenna resistor"))

[@chrome98]

To use an external antenna, just move the resistor next to the connector from the / position to the \ position. It is a 0 ohm resistor so you can just use a solder bridge from point to point if you want.

[@raagamparmar179]

Without seeing the video, I can tell this is a great project, just by looking at the casing of the camera.......THIS IS SUPERB!

[@davidverheyen6635]

Hi, I'm searching for a way to connect a microphone to this board and stream the audio together with the video. Or would the esp32 be to slow for that??

[@МирАрдуинщиков]

Good idea!

[@moxl_]

it's hard to get a proper stream out of these.

[@604smit]

Are the pictures stored somewhere, or will they be overwritten? ??

[@kevinch3]

Great project! I wonder is not needed to soldier some pins to enable the out antenna?

[@edinfific2576]

I didn't see you demonstrate a live stream, which is kind of a main point if I want to use a VIDEO kamera. If this is only a SNAPSHOT kamera, then I don't see the point in putting it up. Plus, telling us what is the frame rate and size that we can expect would help us a lot.

[@MuraliMadupu]

I am so happy to see great demo, CAN YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHARE I CAN PROCURE THE BORDS. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN.

[@iOT_India]

Hi Can You please tell the 3d printing configurations, infill, Material & nozzel size...

[@mauricioacosta7492]

Would this set up be able to stream locally over a wifi network from a router but no actual internet signal/data?

[@DrexProjects]

I am not sure if your "anteena" is working. I'm pretty sure you didn't modify the cam board to enable the external "anttena" It looks as if only the onboard "anteena" is enabled.

[@briandurward]

I was thinking the same. You need to move the zero ohm resistor beside the antennae to the other position. Thanks for video.

[@daulatram1396]

Can we hear around sound room and what is range distance maximum ?

[@billparker9295]

great tutorial but you flick around the screen so quick its very hard to keep track of what your doing.

[@chrome98]

Where can I find the STL for the camera case you use?

[@vishayinternet]

Can i control multiple smart plugs which is connected to different WiFis from the cloud or blynk app

[@sergiohermosalopez4216]

I need a long-term timelapse 30fp per day during 10/11 months without maintenance and charge. I did't find anyone did it before. Any recommendation? Thanks

[@trash_in_a_box]

Why do you have the antennas oriented like that?

[@lsdnesk1]

Dude, you forgot to switch the 0 ohm resistor from internal antenna to the external port, my guess is that your pretty little antennas are not working and all of the traffic has been handled by the onboard ones. Also If I were you i would have printed the cases a bit different, i would put a standardized power connector, like microUSB or a barrel jack, when you are leaving the pins exposed like that you are leaving room for error and i bet connecting the DuPont connectors, wrongly won't be so good for the boards. :)

[@tanixtx5298]

it will work only if phone and camera in one wi-fi net or via internet from any poin world?

[@VuNguyen-sc9zu]

I have an error in the file app_httpd.cpp, struct box_array_t has no member named 'score' , 'struct mtmn_config_t' has no member named 'type' ', pyramid_times' so I can complie this project. I can't find define of this struct. Is there a library in my compiler arduino ide missing?

[@chana100red]

The images are not smooth and buffering quite a bit...any plans to upgrade the cameras with video recording?

[@ioanovidiuveres]

Hello. I want to know what is the RECORDING mode, if it detects movements of people and what is the duration of the recording?

[@pframon5204]

Great video. Many thanks for your explanation. I had some problems. Led flash blinks continuously (don't know why); I had to change board to AI_Thinker board to load correctly the program. And, finally, don't know to finish app in Blink. Anyway, thanks again.

[@CompanyBusinessCards]

super cool app, but I think you should add a field where you can add the IP address to each cam or let the app add it by itself for live stream within the app

[@agentotaku9136]

Will this work with an OV7725 camera?

[@rodrik5000]

Can you measure the maximum current drawing at 4V when transmitting the video stream? Thank you

[@nicolas4667]

What did you use to power the esp32 ? I think that I saw extern battery, which model did you use, and how ? :D

[@olafschermann1592]

USB powerbank. Is 5V

[@ioanovidiuveres]

Hello. I really like the CAM-MB MICRO USB ESP32 boxes. Do you mind if you provide me with the printer project?

Hi, can i record all the ESP32 camera videos into the phone memory so i can playback later?

[@CodingHats]

Is there a video cam which can work like CCTV and continously monitor. Because here it will just click photos. So if we want to display the live stream in blynk then is it possible?

[@minusharma1738]

Hope you get 100 k subs as fast as possible

[@ViralScience]

Thankyou, keep supporting😃

[@MakerVerse]

It would be really nice to see an example of this using FPV or using SIM module. I I want to implement this in my siege house and there is no wifi connection there. So be able to access it remotely is a bit challenging but I'm sure it is possible. I'm thinking in write a Rest API and host it in AWS, I'm just not sure yet how to build the circuit to it.. hummm...
