  • Micropython firmware patch :

    • Adding reset cause Brownout
    • Embedding all python scripts in the firmware (fast loading time, drastic reduction in ram consumption)

  • Micropython ESP32CAM firmware specificities :

    • Full camera support by micropython
    • Motion detection
    • Web page motion configuration
    • Web page to view motion detection history
    • Web page camera streaming
    • Management of space on the sd card (automatic cleaning of old data)
    • Board with camera supported : ESP32-CAM, ESP32-CAM-MB, ESP32ONE, M5Stack Camera

With the exception of boards with camera, which require a driver in micropython firmware, all python scripts can run on a standard version of micropython.

For cards with little ram memory, it can be necessary to compile the firmware that embeds pycameresp : when all the python scripts are in ROM, they consume very little RAM.
