Serial Camera for Arduino OV7670 640x480 VGA CMOS Image Sensor
This camera module is specifically designed to work with Arduino and similar Microcontrollers. This is a low cost camera module, 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 preprocessing can be configured via the Serial Camera Control Bus (SCCB). Combination is though an I2C SCCB interface. It is a very popular camera module and numerous tutorials, example codes and libraries are available on the internet. The OV7670 image sensor is a small size, low voltage, single-chip VGA camera and CMOS image processor for all functions. It provides full-frame, sub-sampled or windowed 8-bit images in various formats, controlled through the Serial Camera Control Bus (SCCB) interface. This Camera module is very powerful and easy-to-interface with 8/16/32 bit Micro-controllers. It will provide vision capability to your next project and will be useful for plenty of applications in Robotics, Image Processing, Simple Machine Vision, Object Detection, Color detection etc. The onboard 2x10 0.1" Output Connector lets you make connections using a breadboard/Arduino faster and easier.
