## Description

Overview: The ESP32-S3-WROOM is a powerful and compact controller equipped with wireless and camera capabilities. This kit will help you learn and use with tutorials and project examples. We offer free technical support to help with questions and issues Tutorials and codes: Includes detailed tutorials and MicroPython, C code (Download is required, but there is no paper tutorial English only) Includes several typical projects with code and explanations The download link is on the product box Contents of MicroPython / C Tutorials: (Note: MicroPython tutorials have several differences ) Foreword ESP32-S3-WROOM Programming Software Environment Configuration Notes for GPIO Chapter 1 LED Project 1.1 Blink Chapter 2 Serial Communication Project 2.1 Serial Print Project 2.2 Serial Read and Write Chapter 3 Bluetooth Project 3.1 Low Energy Data Passthrough Chapter 4 Memory Card Project 4.1 SDMMC Test Chapter 5 WiFi Working Modes Project 5.1 Station Mode Project 5.2 AP Mode Project 5.3 AP+Station Mode Chapter 6 TCP/IP Project 6.1 As Client Project 6.2 As Server Chapter 7 Web Server Camera Project 7.1 Camera Web Server Project 7.2 Video Web Server Project 7.3 Camera and Memory Card Chapter 8 Camera TCP Server Project 8.1 Camera TCP Server What's Next

Review: ラジコンカーにESP32S3CAM（カメラ：受信側）を取り付けて、その撮影画像をリモコン（送信器：ESP32S3）にWifi転送し映像を表示させることが可能かトライしました。QVGAサイズで10fpsくらいですが出来ました。これが限界のようです。ディスプレイはILI9341です。知識が無いため生成AIを使ってプログラミングしたのですが、なかなか良い結果が出ずに手こずりました。動画を転送するのではなくて静止画を高速転送すると指示したら良い結果が得られました。ESP32S3には、PSRAMが搭載されているので画像処理など面白い使い方が有ると思います。
Review: microSDカードやUSBケーブル迄ついて来るので別に準備しなくても良いのは◎。サンプルコードもすぐ試せました。技適マークもついたESP32-S3でした。 追加購入検討してますが、これら付属品がないバリエーション、またピンヘッダもハンダしていないものや、カメラも広角とか赤外線用とか別のもの選べると嬉しいですね。 現在、MicroPythonのサンプルコードが無いようなのでこちらも将来的に期待したい所です。
