ESP is a platform that has both though - wireless and camera on the esp32. Those can quick resume out of a low power sleep and connect to Wi-Fi and dump a picture or a series of pictures - I don't know what's more efficient.

- NavinF 2y agoAre you talking about the 2MP ESP32-CAM modules? Those things are an order of magnitude worse when it comes to fps and perceptual image quality vs Arducam's offerings for the RPi. Also all sorts of specialized hardware like depth sensing cameras work out of the box with the RPi. ESP32 can do both wifi and cameras in the same sense that I can run back to back marathons. I just gotta take a couple of naps at hotels along the way.
- m00x 2y agoYou can connect the esp32 to a proper camera, you don't just have to use the development board for it. If you're just taking a picture and uploading it via wifi, you're better off doing it bare metal. It can do everything stated in OP's post. MIPI support isn't available until ESP-P4 though.
- NavinF 2y agoHow can the esp32 be connected to a proper camera? All the RPi cameras as MIPI so what's an example of a compatible camera? Do you have to debayer and sharpen the image yourself? I've seen a lot of half-assed ISPs and they make good cameras look like crap
- m00x 2y agoESP32-P4 has MIPI support, which will support the wider variety of high-end ones, but there are a small selection of SPI cameras. If you wanted something that's available now, you could use the STM32F4/F7 or the STM32MP1.
