ESP32-CAM Video Streaming global

 ESP32-CAM Video Streaming global

ESP32-CAM is an embedded module which can be used to stream video data by constructing a local server. The module can be programmed using the Arduino IDE. We usually access ESP32-CAM Video Streaming using the IP address through the local area network. What if you want to access your 

Accessing ESP32-CAM Web Server from anywhere

Now follow these steps to access your Video Streaming from any location.

First, you need to upload code given below to "AI ThinkerESP-32CAM" board and get the IP address and Streaming Server of ESP32-CAM

We are using ngrok service to make Video Streaming accessible from anywhere

Server for Video Streaming

Follow these steps to build a video streaming web server with the ESP32-CAM that you can access on your local network.

Step 1:

Install the ESP32 add-on

In this example, we use the Arduino IDE to program the ESP32-CAM board. So, you need to have Arduino IDE installed as well as the ESP32 add-on. Follow one of the next tutorials to install the ESP32 add-on, if you haven’t already.

Step 2:

Video Streaming Code

The relevant instructions in a nutshell.

In your Arduino IDE, go to File > Examples > ESP32 > Camera and open the CameraWebServer example.

Before uploading the code, you need to insert your network credentials in the following variables:

const char* ssid = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID";

const char* password = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD";

Comment all the camera model fines and uncomment the following line

#define CAMERA_MODEL_AI_THINKER

Now, the code is ready to be uploaded to your ESP32

Step 3:

Upload the code to the ESP32 CAM

To upload the code, follow the next steps:

Important: GPIO 0 needs to be connected to GND so that you’re able to upload code.

To upload the code, follow the next steps:

1. Go to Tools > Board and select ESP32 Wrover Module
2. Go to Tools > Port and select the COM port the ESP32 is connected to
3. In Tools > Partition Scheme, select “Huge APP (3MB No OTA)“
4. Press the ESP32-CAM on-board RESET button
5. Then, click the upload button to upload the code

Step 4:

Getting the IP address

After uploading the code, disconnect GPIO 0 from GND.

Open the Serial Monitor at a baud rate of 115200. Press the ESP32-CAM on-board Reset button.

The ESP32 IP address should be printed in the Serial Monitor.
