<![CDATA[M5StickC Plus and Unit Cam Wi-Fi Camera (OV2640)]]>Hello,

I'm struggling to make it work together. I can't find any information about how to make it work. Is the Unit Cam working with M5StickC Plus ? I can see that it is greyed in the UIFlow but I don't have any info about why.
Can someone help me getting more info about them working together or why the cam module in UIFlow is greyed ?

Thanks

An example of adding M5.lcd.drawJpg to M5StickC.

according to this post you can at least use it with M5Core2 using Arduino.

Thanks

afaik M5StickCPlus and unit cam do not work together. Possible reasons:

  • unit cam returns a jpeg picture, but M5StickCPlus library doesn't support / implement jpeg functions
  • unit cam returns a picture with size 320x240, but M5StickCPlus display is only 240x135

I am not saying it is not possible, but it seems it has not been adapted for M5StickCPlus as I cannot find an Arduino example nor is it available in UIFlow (hence greyed out). Sorry.

Thanks
Felix
