Frequently Asked Questions
What is the specific field of view for this camera?
This module features a custom ultra-wide-angle lens with a 160-degree field of view (FoV), significantly wider than standard 120° modules.
Is it compatible with the ESP32-CAM AI-Thinker board?
Yes, it is fully compatible with the standard pinout of the ESP32-CAM (AI-Thinker version) and TTGO T-Journal boards.
What is the maximum output resolution?
The OV2640 sensor supports a maximum resolution of 2 Megapixels, which is 1600 x 1200 pixels.
Does the module support JPEG compression?
Yes, the hardware supports internal JPEG compression, which is ideal for streaming images over Wi-Fi with ESP32.
What voltage is required to power the module?
The module operates on a standard 3.3V power supply, making it suitable for low-power and battery-operated devices.
Can I use this for night vision?
This is a standard CMOS sensor. While it can work in low light, it is not a dedicated IR night vision camera unless used with external IR illumination.
