This sketch allows you to use the ESP32-CAM as an MJPEG & WAV streaming webserver. Audio (your voice) is captured by a microphone and stream to the WAV format.
The code was tested with :
Camera model | Camera module | Microphone |
---|---|---|
AI-Thinker ESP32-CAM | OV2640 OV5640 |
INMP441 MEMS microphone |
XIAO_ESP32S3 | OV2640 OV5640 |
Integrated PDM microphone |
The sketch uses the basic Arduino CameraWebServer example to which I added an audio server.
ESP32-CAM Urls :
Video + Audio stream is made as an example but is not ideal because there is an audio delay related to the web browser buffer. I recommend using go2rtc streaming application in order to have almost ZERO latency.
Configure your WiFi network credentials.
const char* ssid = "ssid";
const char* password = "password";
Edit the audio_server.h file.

//select the pins according to your connections
#define I2S_WS 2
#define I2S_SCK 14
#define I2S_SD 15
#define I2S_PORT I2S_NUM_1
#define SAMPLE_BITS 32
.mode = (i2s_mode_t)(I2S_MODE_MASTER | I2S_MODE_RX),
.channel_format = I2S_CHANNEL_FMT_ONLY_RIGHT,
CAMERA_MODEL_XIAO_ESP32S3
#define I2S_WS 42
#define I2S_SCK -1
#define I2S_SD 41
#define I2S_PORT I2S_NUM_0
#define SAMPLE_BITS 16
.mode = (i2s_mode_t)(I2S_MODE_MASTER | I2S_MODE_RX | I2S_MODE_PDM),
.channel_format = I2S_CHANNEL_FMT_ONLY_LEFT,
Here is the method I use to access the streams from a web page. In order to have a single point for broadcasting video and audio with low latency, I use go2rtc which is a camera streaming application.
You must edit the go2rtc.yaml configuration file.This can be done directly from the web interface.
streams:
ESP32-CAM_video: http://192.168.10.55:81/stream
ESP32-CAM_audio: http://192.168.10.55:82/audio#audio=opus
Alternative to avoid creating a custom HTML web page.

ESP32-CAM:
- ffmpeg:http://192.168.10.55:81/stream#video=h264

The custom html page contains two Iframes that allow video and audio to be combined. Adapt the ESP32CAM_stream.html file with the following links :
It is also possible to integrate into Home Assistant.
