ESP32 + OV7670 image upload

[zmajkoo]

Is there any way to take pictures using ESP32 and OV7670 camera and upload it somewhere (my goal is to use picture from esp32 on my android phone). I was hoping to upload pictures to firebase storage and then to my android to download it.

Can someone provide some help? For now, I still can't take pictures with OV7670 just low level video.

Not sure I understand how you can get any kind of video from camera sensor and not being able to get a single frame: the sensor interface is supposed to give you single frame which you then organize into a video stream.

Take a look at https://github.com/m5stack/esp32-cam-demo: it has support for several OmniVision sensor (camera) models, not exactly OV7670, but a) it still might work; b) you could use it as a starting point for implementing driver for your model.

I'm currently working in an application that does exactly that.

I'll improve both documentation and the code and open a PR sometime soon.

Will this work with the ESP32 development board and not just the ESP32 Ai-Thinker board? Also, do you just install the zip file to the Arduino IDE? Additionally, are there any header files that have to be included in the “.ino” file?
Thanks!

It sure works for others ESP32 boards but you have to make sure it meets those requirements.
This repository is focused on ESP-IDF stack hence it has no Arduino IDE capabilities.
