Espressif Systems ESP32-P4-EYE Vision Development Board
Espressif ESP32-P4-EYE Vision Development Board is based on the ESP32-P4 chip and mainly targets camera applications. ESP32-P4 features a dual-core RISC-V processor and supports up to 32MB of PSRAM. In addition, ESP32-P4 supports the USB 2.0 standard, MIPI-CSI/DSI, H264 encoder, and various other peripherals. With its outstanding features, the board is an ideal choice for developing low-cost, high-performance, low-power network-connected audio and video products.
The board integrates the Espressif ESP32-C6-MINI-1U module for Wi-Fi® and BLUETOOTH® communication. It supports a MIPICSI camera interface and USB 2.0 high-speed device mode. Rich onboard features include a camera, display, microphone, and MicroSD card, enabling real-time environment monitoring and the collection of images and audio data. It is suitable for applications such as smart surveillance cameras, vision model detection, and edge computing in the Internet of Things (IoT) that require real-time image processing and wireless communication.
Most I/O pins are broken out to the pin header for easy interfacing. Developers can connect peripherals with jumper wires.
