Description TimerCamera-X is an ESP32 camera module built for timed image capture, WiFi image transmission, and compact remote monitoring. TimerCamera-X combines an ESP32-D0WDQ6-V3 controller, onboard 8M PSRAM, and a 3MP OV3660 sensor with a 66.5 degree field of view, giving the ESP32 camera module enough memory and image resolution for embedded vision projects. As a low-power camera module, TimerCamera-X uses the BM8563 RTC for timed sleep and wake operation, reaches sleep current as low as 2uA, and can run timed photo tasks for more than one month when configured for one photo per hour. The ESP32 camera module also includes a 140mAh battery, status LED, reset button, USB debugging, and a bottom HY2.0-4P expansion port. Note: In certain system environments, you may need to install the driver twice for it to take effect. Features TimerCamera-X uses an ESP32-based design with 8M PSRAM for image handling. ESP32 camera module with OV3660 image sensor and 2048 x 1536 maximum photo resolution. Low-power camera module with timed sleep, timed wake, and BM8563 RTC support. WiFi image transmission for remote monitoring and timed photography workflows. Built-in 140mAh battery, status indicator, reset button, and USB debugging. Programming support for ESP-IDF, Arduino, and UIFlow. TimerCamera-X supports configuration with M5Burner and Camera-Tool.

Product List 1 x TimerCamera-X 1 x LEGO Adapter 1 x Wall-1515 1 x USB Type-C cable (20cm) Other Content TimerCamera-X uses a power-management approach that differs from CORE and StickC devices. Hold the PWR button for 2 seconds to power on; to power off, use the software API or press the reset button on the PCB. When external power is connected, the ESP32 camera module remains powered on. If undervoltage occurs, the camera may reset because of brownout protection. On some systems, TimerCamera-X may also require an FTDI VCP driver; in certain environments the driver may need to be installed twice before the low-power camera module is recognized correctly. Resources TimerCamera-X documentation Schematic PDF ESP32-D0WDQ6-V3 datasheet OV3660 datasheet Camera-Tool guide Arduino quick start TimerCam Arduino library FAQ What is TimerCamera-X used for? TimerCamera-X is used for timed photography, remote monitoring, and compact IoT camera prototypes that need WiFi image transmission. TimerCamera-X is especially useful when a small camera node must wake on a schedule. Why choose this ESP32 camera module? The ESP32 camera module integrates ESP32 control, 8M PSRAM, an OV3660 sensor, a battery, and timed wake support in a small board. How does the low-power camera module save energy? The low-power camera module uses an RTC for timed sleep and wake so TimerCamera-X can stay asleep between image capture events. TimerCamera-X then wakes for capture and transmission.
