: The camera continuously captures frames at low resolution; if the "motion ratio" exceeds a set threshold, it triggers an action (like saving a high-res image to the SD card). Core Technical Specifications

: Uses libraries like the Eloquent Arduino library to compare consecutive frames for pixel changes. esp32-cam-motion-detection

The is a powerful, low-cost microcontroller that combines Wi-Fi/Bluetooth capabilities with an integrated camera module. For motion detection, you can choose between a hardware-based approach using an external PIR sensor or a software-based approach using image processing. Motion Detection Methods PIR Sensor (Hardware-Based): : The camera continuously captures frames at low

: When the sensor detects heat-based motion, it triggers the ESP32-CAM to "wake up" and capture an image. Video Motion Detection (Software-Based): esp32-cam-motion-detection
