Recommended ESP32 Camera Board
This eBook is fully compatible with the ESP32-CAM AI-Thinker board – it comes with an OV2640 camera, microSD card support, 4MB PSRAM and external GPIOs to connect peripherals – see figure below.
Other ESP32 development boards with the OV2640 camera are compatible with some projects. We provide the pin assignment for the most common ESP32 camera dev boards: TTGO T-Journal, M5-Stack ESP32 camera, M5-Camera without PSRAM, TTGO T-Plus, ESP-EYE, etc…
For example, projects that involve using the SD card are just compatible with boards that support microSD card. Projects that connect external peripherals are compatible with boards with exposed GPIOs.
For projects that don’t require a microSD card nor external peripherals, the M5-stack ESP32 camera with PSRAM is a great option.
Programming Language
The projects in this eBook cover programming the ESP32-CAM using Arduino IDE and the “Arduino programming language“. At the moment, the eBook doesn’t cover programming the ESP32-CAM with MicroPython.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. All projects contain step by step instructions and all the resources to follow along even if you’re not familiar with the ESP32.
However, keep in mind that this eBook doesn’t cover basic concepts related to ESP32 – so if you’re new to programming you might not be able to fully understand the code. To learn ESP32, you might consider enrolling in Learn ESP32 with Arduino IDE course instead.
Yes. However, depending on the board you’re using, you won’t be able to follow some of the projects.
For example, projects that use the microSD card are not compatible with boards that don’t have microSD card support. Projects that use peripherals are just compatible with boards that have exposed GPIOs.
Yes, I often update all my eBooks, so everyone who purchases gets free lifetime updates. You’ll also have access to future content that we’ll add to the eBook.

Meet the Authors
Hey there, I’m Rui Santos, founder of the Random Nerd Tutorials blog. For the last couple of months we’ve been working on this new eBook dedicated to programming the ESP32-CAM boards with Arduino IDE. This eBook is our complete guide to take the most out of the ESP32 Camera development boards. If you like my work, you’ll certainly like “Build ESP32-CAM Projects” eBook.
Hi. I’m Sara Santos and I work at the RNT blog with Rui. We’ve created the “Build ESP32-CAM Projects” eBook to provide an easy way to get started with this amazing ESP32-CAM board. This board allows you to build complex projects with real world applications. By the end of this eBook, you’ll be able to make your own video streaming servers, robots, surveillance systems, and much more. I’m sure you’ll like it.

Thank you Rui for everything you’ve done for ESP8266 projecteers. You and your site have been my “go-to” for a few years whenever I need advice or some detail of a component.

I have been doing your courses on ESP8266, ESP32, and Home automation, and they are really excellent. It seems that you have taken lots of efforts to make and explain even very difficult topics in a very simple and easy to understand way. Congratulations for your valuable work.
Dattatraya Apte
This is one of the best sites on the net, period. I recently purchased your course (Learn ESP32 with Arduino IDE) and I can’t say enough about it. It simply let me bypass hours of aggravation. Clear instruction and great example code. Thanks again.

Hello Sir. You are such an inspiring person. I really appreciate the effort you put into your projects. Because of RNT I have successfully built my first DHT11 circuit with my new ESP32 and I am very proud of it.
