Can you please do a tutorial for OV7670 Camera Module with Arduino Mega 2560

[@sriharisridhar356]

The image window is opening up, I assigned the correct port and baud rate, but it is not rendering the red rectangle. What could be the issue(I am using Arduino Nano)

[@IndrekL]

Hey! Did you set "#define EXAMPLE 3" in "setup.h"? Did you try with a plain Arduino without any additional wires beside the USB cable? The red rectangle is sent after boot-up, and sometimes the Java program can miss the frame. Try to press the reset button on the Arduino then the image will be sent again. If that doesn't help try with a lower baudrate. In the "ExampleUart.cpp"set #define UART_MODE 4 Now you have to also select 115200 in the Java program.

[@IndrekL]

Are you using an original genuine Arduino? For some reason 1000000 baudrate does not work properly with genuine Arduino. You have to lower the baudrate (which also makes the image much slower). If you try it with a Chinise Arduino clone that use the ch340 serial chip then you can use 1000000 baudrate.

[@ajayjoshi_aj]

@@IndrekL m using chinese variant of arduino uno but some somehow it shows glitch at 1M for both resolution so I have to lower that baud rate too.

[@IndrekL]

Your question gave me the idea to make a video about it. Before that the ArduinoImageCapture project was just an experiment I did two years ago. Now I am thinking that sending image over serial rather than to the screen might be even better place to start experimenting with the camera since it requires less components. How did the test/exam/presentation go?

[@aindriyabarua5141]

@@IndrekL The presentation went good, they understood the complication and I could explain why I didn't get output, and the fact that the interfacing would have been much easier with a fifo in the camera itself. So it went pretty much fine. This interfacing is part of a bigger project i am trying to do.

[@VitorJTekkRodrigues]

Hi, your videos were very hepful. I've followed your tutorial step by step. I had the red screen initially and then the Green screen at the mid-test. But whenever I connect the remaining pins, I also get a red screen. Am I doing something wrong? Also, I have an Arduino clone, but it has an DIP atmega328P, so apparently it doesn't support 1M baud. Is it possible to reduce framerate so I can use smaller baud rates with a bigger resolution? I'm trying to setup a camera to capture a Gray scale frame every 10 seconds and send it wirelessly via LoRa and then store on a PC. But so far I'm stuck at the camera setup, can you give me any hints?

[@IndrekL]

Hey! If you get green screen and then red screen after connecting the rest of the wires then there must be something wrong with the rest of the connections that causes the camera to stop working. Maybe you can connect the rest of the wires one-by-one to see at which point it stops working. Yes, if you play with the resolution and frame-rate you can get also higher resolution with slower frame rate. What resolution and baudrate do you want? I can make the configuration and add it to the pre-set options in the "ExampleUart.cpp"

[@VitorJTekkRodrigues]

@@IndrekL Thanks for the reply!! :D The day after I wrote that commentary I was able to get some footage from the camera. I think the issue I had was due to using old jumpers, but I've already ordered a new pack of those as replacement. So far in my project, I've managed to transmit data serially (software serial) at 9600 baud through the LoRa module I'm using to another module which receives the data and send it through an Arduino to a PC. (Theoretically the module can link at 115200 baud but I'm having issues changing it's default settings). It's a low-power project where the camera is triggered by a motion sensor, like those in bathroom lights. So in my case I won't be needing constant "live" feed but rather a single frame whenever someones passes by and triggers the sensor. The sensor takes around 8.6 seconds to warm up after each detection, which is the theorical shortest delay I'll need. So I guess any baud rate would do fine for me as long as I can send a compressed VGA image in less than 9 or 10 seconds. This motion detection bit is also already complete. I've already tampered a little with your code and managed to get a feed on grayscale and VGA. But I'm not sure If I've configured It properly. I think I won't be needing colors, but as much resolution and as low Blur as I can get, since my end goal is to use those captured and transmitted images on a facial recognition software or, at least, on a human detection software I'll build in python. (By the way, all the images I've got we're a lot blurrier than what you've shown at the end of the video. Is that just lens adjustment or It has some software settings involved?) It would be great If you could help me out with the camera settings and clarify a little of what you've done in your code, so I can make a similar one that triggers with an Arduino output and sends the frame through SoftwareSerial(). (Sorry for the long text, I felt It would be easier to explain by giving some context of what I'm doing)

[@IndrekL]

@@VitorJTekkRodrigues In this case you actually should use the FIFO version of the camera. If you use my code with slow frame rate and you want to capture a moving object (a person walking in front of the camera) then the image will be very blurry. FIFO version of the camera can take a snap-shot very quickly and then you have time to send it over the slow serial line.

[@VitorJTekkRodrigues]

@@IndrekL If It manage to set up my radio module to operate at 115200 baud, would I be able to still use the non-fifo module? Because I don't have a FIFO version and it's probably going to take a month to get It if I order one right now, and being a college project to be delivered at the end of August, I'm probably stuck with what I have right now.

[@IndrekL]

@@dondixon4206 Yes, you can select a folder in the Java application and then all the images will be stored into that folder. Maybe you actually need the FIFO version of the camera? Arduino doesn't have enough memory to hold a frame. So it reads the image from the sensor and then immediately sends it out from the serial port. If the serial connection is slow then the image will have to terrible rolling shutter effect. The FIFO version of the camera can take a snapshot and then there is time to send it slowly over the serial connection.

[@flash1697]

May i know why you use 10K, 1K and 680 resistor?

[@IndrekL]

Hey! 10k is common practice for i2c pull-up resistors. The camera module's input signal must be below 3.3V, but Arduino output is 5V. So when I build a voltage divider with 680 ohm and 1k resistors then the output will be about 3V, which is good enough for the camera. It probably will also work with two 1k resistors or two 680 ohm resistors (or any resistor in that range) - then the output would be about 2.5V The total resistance shouldn't be too high since then the signal starts to deform. If it is too low it will consume too much power (Ohm's law). With 1680 ohm total the signal pins voltage divider will consume 5V/1680ohm = ~3mA, which is low enough.

[@IndrekL]

Yes, you can enable interrupts while you do not need to read image from the camera. Reading pixels data from the camera is very time-critical and any interrupt that is triggered during that time will break the image. By default there is only timer interrupt for "millis" that breaks the image. I call "noInterrupts" to stop that. Actually to disable "millis" interrupt setting "TIMSK0 = 0;" is enough. But if you add your own interrupts you should disable them also while reading image ("noInterrupts" will disable all interrupts). Do you want to use an interrupt for the "save image" button? Wouldn't it be much easier to just do "digitalRead" in a loop?

[@IndrekL]

The image format is not correct for the Java program. Did you download latest version of both the Java code and Arduino code? If yes then check if you selected correct baudrate in the Java program. By default it should be 1000000. If that is still correct then try lowering the baudrate by changing the UART_MODE in ExampleUart.cpp and then select the same baudrate in the Java program.

[@alexsherzer]

Can I ask you about how I should be save image from form to my local computer? And could be I compile this project like executable file for run on any computer?

[@IndrekL]

I will add saving option to the java program soon. I have been asked about that a couple of times already but I haven't had time to do it yet. I haven't done it myself, but it is possible to create self contained executable for java application. Here is one StackOveflow question about it: stackoverflow.com/questions/2011664/compiling-a-java-program-into-an-executable

[@IndrekL]

I did some googling and it is quite simple to use IntelliJ to compile the project into a .jar file that can be run by double clicking on it if you have Java installed (you also have to copy your platform specific rxtxSerial.dll next to the .jar file - for me it was win64). If you want I can write more detailed instructions how to do that. I haven't tried this myself but now it should be possible to use JSmooth to create an exe wrapper to the .jar file.

If you see red then you most likely have the latest version. Red screen means that sending configuration failed. There is either problem with XCLK signal or the i2c connection. Do you have an Oscilloscope? If you have then you should check XCLK on the camera side. There should be 8Mhz signal on it. If this is OK then you should try to check if camera is sending out PCLK and VSYNC signals.

I did it. bluetooth hc05 module causes error 115200hz decreased it to 57600hz and image format is grayscale it works well know thanks for your share about ov7670

[@IndrekL]

Hey! This is great news that you got it working! I haven't tried the wireless modules myself yet. Usually those are quite slow and it makes the image transfer more complicated.

[@sifunisosimushi8801]

This was really impressive... Is it possible to send the image as a message to a phone?

[@IndrekL]

Currently, I have only made it work over USB. Theoretically it should be possible with a WIFI module to send it over network to any device.

Where i can get arduino code?

[@IndrekL]

Link to the github project is in the description box.

[@lotromexico]

Will this work for the arduino Due?

[@IndrekL]

Currently it doesn't support Due. Due has completely different processor compared to Uno/Nano/Mega

[@defaultdef7221]

can i launch it on Mega ?

[@IndrekL]

Yes, it works with Mega also. Connections are a little different: github.com/indrekluuk/LiveOV7670#connections-for-arduino-mega

Nice thanks for this video

[@riteshpawar9953]

Is it possible without usb ?

[@IndrekL]

Yes, possibly with a wifi module.

[@mohammadshajahan2165]

is it work with esp8266 controller

[@mohammadshajahan2165]

sir replay me

[@IndrekL]

Hey! My library doesn't work with the ESP8266 at the moment. ESP8266 only has 11 available IO pins and it might not be enough.

[@mohammadshajahan2165]

@@IndrekL tq for quick replay. sir plz suggest me a library which works with esp8266 i just need to see the captured pics im my pc

[@IndrekL]

Maybe you can check this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqLJhK1nn79lgKM It uses ArduCAM mini instead of OV7670

sir I followed your steps and my project worked . But now I want to send the streaming videos through esp8266 wifi module to my android phone .So sir please guide me .Thanks :)

[@IndrekL]

I haven't had time to do it myself yet. At some point in the future I will try to send image data over a wifi module. Right now it's hard for me to help you since I don't know exactly how to do it yet.
