ArduCam Mini not working

[deltaGPhys]

There seems to be less documentation for the mini board than the others; I can't get it to work (OV 5642). I get just garbage back to the serial monitor. Also, since there's no SD port on the mini shield, how will I save pictures?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks, jg

Hello,

I just bought an ARDUCAM PiNOIR ov5647 with CS mount and I will use it for the raspberry pi 3. The problem is that I cannot find the documentation of the camera. There is neither code available for it nor its datasheet. Please can any one help me?? Thank you

Hello deltaGPhys, did you manage to activate your camera ov 5642 and SD? I have the same problem and I am not able to solve it``

Hi capblack, I am trying to connect my OV 5642 camera, and I am not able to make it work. I have not taken any photos yet. I would like to get in touch with you to resolve any doubts.

a greeting

@tomburtonwood Hi, Which demo do you use? Maybe it's because the code exist some bugs. Please tell us and we will check it and give you a reply as soon as quickly.

Let us know if you need more help. Regards, ArduCAM support team.

Hi diegoto , I have set up this camera without any problem, with arduino mega and esp8266 and one, with the examples mentioned here, they all work without any problem, try to verify the connections, and also you can check here

SPI.begin(); 64 //Check if the ArduCAM SPI bus is OK 65 myCAM.write_reg(ARDUCHIP_TEST1, 0x55); 66 temp = myCAM.read_reg(ARDUCHIP_TEST1); 67 Serial.println(temp); <<<<<<========== here temp return 0x85 "SPI Interface Error" 68 if (temp != 0x55) 69 { 70 Serial.println("SPI interface Error!"); <<<=== If you get this , there is a hard problem 71 //while(1); 72 }

Hi, I am using an arducam shield v2 on arduino uno and I keep getting the SPI interface error for any code that I try to execute. The myCAM.read_reg(ARDUCHIP_TEST1) function returns 0 always for SPI_CS 10 in the following code. //Check if the ArduCAM SPI bus is OK myCAM.write_reg(ARDUCHIP_TEST1, 0x55); temp = myCAM.read_reg(ARDUCHIP_TEST1); Serial.println(temp); if (temp != 0x55) { Serial.println("SPI interface Error!"); } }

dear Arducam support team hello? I have ov2640 camera module but for video streaming over wifi its very slow, i get only 1 fps, i cannot understand whether ov2640 is not capable of video streaming or should i move for @another camera module like ov5642? can you suggest which camera is better for video stream over wifi? @ArduCAM

[diegoto]

I only have could on my ov5642, but not wifi. If you buy ov5642 i would can you

@jay07bm26 Hi, You can know more about our esp8266 UNO board from http://www.arducam.com/knowledge-base/esp8266-uno-tutorial/ If you are using Arducam MIni 2MP , the frame rate of the video streaming can up to 10 fps with 320x240 resolution. What's more , you also can konw about our Arducam ESP32 board. Please refer to this video demo from below link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2G9hZgBmOk&index=8&list=UUn2ifRcEFO0PYCrnD0CDn_Q

@UCTRONICS Hi, but i am using rtsp protocol to send images via sever. can u suggest how to increase ov2640's fps?

[UCTRONICS]

@jay07bm26 Hi, At present, we don't have demo about using rtsp protocol . Would you like to send us your code ? We are willing to work together with you.

@UCTRONICS Hi, i am developing wifi door bell,is it possible for any arducam camera to achieve 30fps or more? and can you give your personal email id to share code with you...

[UCTRONICS]

jay07bm26 Hi, Our arducam canera is SPI interface and the speed can not up to 30 fps.Our USB camera will get better effect. our email address is support@uctronics.com Looking forward to your code.

Hi,

We have make our camera up to 15 fps in 320x240 resolution on STM32 platform,but without wifi， we send the image data to our Arducam_Host_V2 by serial port with 921600 baud rate.If you like , we are willing to share it with you.

Looking forward to your reply. Regards,
