Arduino Camera OV7670 640×480 VGA CMOS Camera Imaging Module

OV7670 640X480 VGA CMOS CAMERA IMAGE SENSOR MODULE is a low-cost image sensor, DSP that can operate at a maximum of 30 fps and 640 x 480 (“VGA”) resolutions, equivalent to 0.3 Megapixels. The captured image can be pre-processed by the DSP before sending it out. This pre-processing can be configured via the Serial Camera Control Bus (SCCB). OmniVision OV7670 CMOS VGA (640×480) CAMERA-CHIP Sensor with OmniPixel technology 3.3V DC Input Voltage. working Temp. 0-50 Degree Celsius All Glass Lenses, Lens(including seat) is Magnesium Alloy material.

Focal length of lens is 3.6 mm 650 nm Bands Black FR-4 PCB, Quality Heavy Gold Plate, effectively prevent the PCB from light leak issues and prevents shadow in images 2×10 0.1″ output connector for convenient insertion into Prototype Board, Bread Board, MCU Onboard Connectors This Camera module is very powerful and easy-to-interface with 8/16/32 bit Micro-controller. OV7670 640X480 VGA CMOS CAMERA IMAGE SENSOR MODULE will provide vision to your small embedded systems and will be useful for plenty of application in Robotics.

Image Processing, Simple Machine Vision, Object Detection, Color detection etc. 2×10 0.1″ Output Connector will be easy to plug into any prototype board or breadboard which will make your project/product implementation fast. Technical parameters: High sensitivity for low-light operation Low operating voltage for embedded portable apps Lens shading correction Flicker (50/60 Hz) auto detection Saturation level auto adjust (UV adjust) Edge enhancement level auto adjust.

The connection between the module and the Arduino uses 6 analog pins and 8 digital pins, and they have to be connected as shown in this figure:

The software requirements are the Arduino IDE and Java Development Kit (JDK). To run the project, you have to execute a java code through the command line. The script will search for images received from Arduino and then saves them on the PC.

Source code, additional needed files, and setting up instructions are all available at the tutorial page.
