د میکرفابس ما ټچ ESP32-S3 2.8" کامره او ټچ سکرین: 3MP عکسونه SD کارت ته
ژوندی لیدونکی، د ۳ میګاپکسله عکسونه، د ریښتیني وخت نښې سره SD ته خوندي شوي
یو کار کوونکی کامره اپلیکیشن: په ثانیه کې شاوخوا ۲۵ چوکاټونو کې ژوندی لیدونکی، درې ټچ تڼۍ، او عکسونه د بورډ د بیټرۍ ملاتړ شوي ساعت څخه سمې نیټې او وخت سره microSD کارت ته خوندي شوي.
د MaTouch AI ESP32-S3 بورډ پر مخ کامره او ټچ سکرین روان
درې تڼۍ
SNAP - د لیدونکي په ریزولوشن کې سمدستي عکس. چټک او تل کار کوي.
3 MP - یو ریښتینی ۲۰۴۸×۱۵۳۶ عکس. سکرین شاوخوا دوه ثانیې تیاره کیږي؛ دا د کامرې ډرایور بیا پیل دی، او لاندې تشریح شوی.
FLIP - عکس انځور ګرځوي کله چې تاسو لینز له خپل ځانه لرې ګرځوئ.
ولې د ۳ MP عکس لپاره سکرین تیاره کیږي
د کامرې پکسل بڼه هغه وخت ټاکل کیږي چې ډرایور پیل شي. تاسو کولی شئ په الوتنه کې ریزولوشن بدل کړئ، مګر تاسو نشئ کولی له RGB565 (هغه څه چې سکرین ورته اړتیا لري) څخه JPEG (هغه څه چې فایل ورته اړتیا لري) ته پرته له دې چې ډرایور بیا پیل کړئ واړوئ. نو د لوړ ریزولوشن لاره esp_camera_deinit() غواړي، په JPEG حالت کې په بشپړ ریزولوشن کې بیا پیل کیږي، عکس اخلي، بیا لیدونکی بیرته راولي. دا وقفه صادقانه ده، یوه تېروتنه نه ده.
پرته له انټرنیټ څخه د وخت نښې
عکسونه د /IMG_260730_143052.jpg په توګه خوندي کیږي - کال، میاشت، ورځ، ساعت، دقیقه، ثانیه. دا د PCF8563T ریښتیني وخت ساعت څخه راځي، کوم چې د بیټرۍ لخوا روان ساتل کیږي، نو وخت د خلاصولو سره ژوندی پاتې کیږي. که ساعت بریښنا له لاسه ورکړې وي، سکیچ یې د سکیچ د تالیف وخت څخه ډکوي.
د تولیدونکي مثال ته یوه سمونه
د پلورونکي خپل کامره مثال SD کارت په پنونو ۲، ۴۲ او ۴۱ باندې تعریفوي. هغه پن شمېرې له بل بورډ څخه کاپي شوي دي - په دې بورډ کې دوی د مایکروفون پنونه دي. SD کارت په حقیقت کې د ښودنې په SPI بس کې دی چې خپل چپ انتخاب یې په IO47 باندې دی، کوم چې دلته کوډ کاروي. دا مهمه ده که تاسو کله هم غواړئ کامره او مایکروفونونه په ورته سکیچ کې کار وکړي.
د یو SPI بس شریکول
ښودنه او SD کارت په ورته دریو تارونو باندې دي، نو دواړه باید د ورته SPI ډرایور له لارې لاړ شي. دا سکیچ د همدې دلیل لپاره د معیاري SPI اعتراض سره Arduino_HWSPI کاروي. د هر یو لپاره د بیلابیل ډرایور کارول د هغه ښودنې کلاسیک لامل دی چې هغه شیبه کنګل کیږي چې SD کارت نصب شي.
د MaTouch AI ESP32-S3 2.8" بورډ په اړه
په دې پاڼه کې هره پروژه د Makerfabs په MaTouch AI ESP32-S3 2.8" TFT ST7789V باندې روانه ده. دا یو ټول-په-یو بورډ دی: یو رنګه ټچ سکرین، یوه ۳ میګاپکسله کامره، دوه مایکروفونونه او یو ریښتینی سپیکر امپلیفایر، ټول د ESP32-S3 لخوا د ۸ MB PSRAM سره پرمخ وړل کیږي. دا ترکیب دی چې دا AI پروژې په یوه بورډ کې پرته له بل څه سره ممکنه کوي.
د ۸ MB PSRAM دلته له هر بل شمیر څخه ډیر مهم دی. دا هغه څه دي چې بورډ ته اجازه ورکوي چې د کامرې یو چوکاټ، د ثبت شوي آډیو څو ثانیې، یا یو base64-کوډ شوی عکس په حافظه کې په ورته وخت کې وساتي - چې هیڅ یو یې د ESP32 په عادي RAM کې نه ځای کیږي.
د تولیدونکي اسناد: د Makerfabs ویکي پاڼه.
کلیدي مشخصات
پروسسور: ESP32-S3، دوه کور ۲۴۰ MHz، WiFi 2.4 GHz + Bluetooth 5.0
حافظه: ۱۶ MB فلش، ۸ MB PSRAM (دلته د نږدې هرې پروژې لپاره اړین)
ښودنه: 2.8" IPS، ۳۲۰×۲۴۰، ST7789V ډرایور، SPI
ټچ: GT911 کپیسیټیو، په یو وخت کې ۵ ګوتې تعقیبوي
کامره: OV3660، ۳ میګاپکسله، تر ۲۰۴۸×۱۵۳۶ پورې
مایکروفونونه: دوه INMP441 I2S ډیجیټل مایکونه (یو ریښتینی سټیریو جوړه)
سپیکر: MAX98357A کلاس-D امپلیفایر، 3.2 W په ۴ Ω کې
ذخیره: microSD کارت سلاټ (SPI حالت)
بریښنا: USB-C، JST بیټرۍ نښلونکی، TP4056 چارجر، د بریښنا سویچ
همدارنګه په بورډ کې: WS2812B RGB LED، PCF8563T د بیټرۍ ملاتړ شوی ریښتیني وخت ساعت، او یو MAX17048 بیټرۍ د سونګ ګیج چې په رسمي مشخصاتو کې نه لیست شوی
دوه USB-C بندرونه یو شان نه دي. د بورډ سپیکر خپل سیګنال پنونه (IO19 او IO20) د اصلي USB بندر سره شریکوي، ځکه چې هغه پنونه د ESP32-S3 سخت تار شوي USB ډیټا کرښې دي. تل د CH340K USB-C بندر له لارې اپلوډ او بریښنا ورکړئ (هغه چې د RESET تڼۍ تر څنګ دی)، او USB CDC On Boot په Disabled وټاکئ. غلط بندر وکاروئ او آډیو به ناسم چلند وکړي یا اپلوډونه به ناکام شي.
د Arduino IDE ترتیبات
دا ترتیبات مهم دي. ډیری ستونزې چې خلک یې د دې بورډ سره راپور ورکوي د دې څخه یوه غلطه ده، او دوی کله چې تاسو د کور نسخه بدل کړئ بیا تنظیمیږي، نو د هر بدلون وروسته یې بیا وګورئ.
ترتیب | ارزښت |
|---|---|
بورډ | ESP32S3 Dev Module |
د ESP32 کور نسخه | 2.0.17 |
PSRAM | OPI PSRAM |
د فلش اندازه | 16MB (128Mb) |
د پارټیشن سکیم | 16M Flash (3MB APP/9.9MB FATFS) |
USB CDC On Boot | Disabled |
د اپلوډ سرعت | 921600 |
د اپلوډ دمخه ټول فلش پاک کړئ | Disabled |
بندر | د CH340K USB-C بندر |
د ESP32 کور 2.0.17 وکاروئئ، نه 3.x. Espressif په کور 3 کې د وسیلې پر مخ د مخ پیژندنې ماډلونه لرې کړي دي، نو د مخ پروژې به هلته کمپایل نشي. د 2.0.17 پاتې کیدل په دې پاڼه کې هر پروژه د یو ترتیب سره کار کوي. د بورډ مدیر کې، د نسخې ډراپ-ډاون تاسو ته اجازه درکوي چې هر وخت چې وغواړئ مخکې او شاته بدل کړئ.
د Arduino لپاره د GFX کتابتون نسخه 1.5.6 وکاروئئ، نه 1.6.x. د 1.6 خپرونې د ESP32 کور 3 لپاره جوړې شوې دي او کولی شي په کور 2.0.17 کې په پیل کې ځړول شي. که ستاسو سکرین د اپلوډ وروسته تور پاتې شي، دا لومړی شی دی چې باید وګورئ.
اړین کتابتونونه
دا د Arduino IDE کې د Tools → Manage Libraries له لارې نصب کړئ. د نسخې شمیرې مهمې دي - مهرباني وکړئ هغه وکاروئئ چې لیست شوي دي.
کتابتون | نسخه | لیکوال |
|---|---|---|
د Arduino لپاره د GFX کتابتون | 1.5.6 | moononournation |
bb_captouch | 1.3.1 | Larry Bank |
ستونزې حل کول
نښه | علت او حل |
|---|---|
سکرین تور پاتې کیږي | د GFX کتابتون غلطه نسخه (1.5.6 وکاروئئ) یا د بورډ غلط ترتیبات. |
|
|
هیڅ نه اپلوډ کیږي / د COM بندر نشته | غلط USB-C بندر، یا د CH340 ډرایور نصب شوی نه دی. |
کیمره ناکامه کیږي او هیڅکله بیرته نه راګرځي | د کیمرې ریسیټ کرښه د بورډ د RESET تڼۍ سره تړلې ده، نو سافټویر نشي کولی دا بیا پیل کړي. RESET فشار کړئ. که بیا هم ناکامه شي، د کیمرې ریبون کیبل بیرته ځای په ځای کړئ. |
کوډ ډاونلوډ کړئ
د دې پروژې بشپړ Arduino سکیچ، د pins.h او هر هغه څه سره چې ورته اړتیا لري، په وړیا توګه ډاونلوډ لپاره شتون لري.
دا انزیپ کړئ، د .ino فایل په Arduino IDE کې خلاص کړئ، پورته ترتیبات وګورئ، او د CH340K USB-C بندر له لارې اپلوډ کړئ.
دا بورډ چیرته وپیرئ
دا اړوند لینکونه دي. دوی تاسو ته هیڅ اضافي لګښت نه درکوي او د دې سایټ پر وړیا کوډ او ټیوټوریلونو ملاتړ کې مرسته کوي - مننه.

*
* All of this code is free. If it helped you, a subscribe on YouTube is
* the best way to support more of it.
*
* Watching the video first will save you time - it shows the Arduino IDE
* settings and the library versions being set up step by step.
* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* Live camera viewfinder with a touch interface, saving real photos to the
* microSD card, each one stamped with the true date and time from the board's
* battery-backed RTC.
*
* Three buttons down the right hand side:
*
* SNAP quick save. Converts the frame already on screen to JPEG.
* Instant, 240x240, always works.
*
* 3 MP the real thing. Tears the camera down, brings it back up at
* 2048x1536 JPEG, takes the shot, and restores the viewfinder.
* Takes a couple of seconds. This is the OV3660's full
* 3 megapixels, not an upscale.
*
* MIRROR flips the image, for when you turn the board around to point
* the lens at someone else.
*
* Photos land on the SD card as /IMG_260729_143052.jpg
*
* No WiFi, no API keys, no internet.
*
* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* WHY THE 3 MP BUTTON HAS TO WORK SO HARD
* A camera's pixel format is fixed when the driver starts. You can change the
* resolution on the fly, but you cannot switch RGB565 (what the screen wants)
* to JPEG (what the SD card wants) without restarting the driver. So the
* hi-res path deinitialises and reinitialises. That is normal, and it is why
* the screen goes black for a moment.
*
* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* BOARD SETTINGS - see pins.h. In short: ESP32S3 Dev Module, core 2.0.17,
* OPI PSRAM, 16MB flash, 16M partition scheme, upload via the CH340K port.
*
* LIBRARIES
* GFX Library for Arduino v1.5.6
* bb_captouch v1.3.1
*
* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* FUNCTIONS IN THIS SKETCH
* rtcRead() / rtcWrite(...) read/set the PCF8563 battery-backed clock
* rtcSeedFromBuildTime() set the clock from compile time if it lost power
* getTouch(&x,&y) read the touch panel, mapped to screen coordinates
* inBox(...) hit-test a touch against a button rectangle
* camStart(...) start the camera in a given format/size
* camStartPreview() start the 240x240 RGB565 live-view camera
* makeFilename(...) /IMG_YYMMDD_HHMMSS.jpg from the RTC time
* writeToSD(...) save a buffer to the SD card
* snapQuick() SNAP button: re-encode the preview frame to JPEG
* snapHiRes() 3MP button: restart camera in JPEG mode, full res
* drawButton(...) / drawButtons() / drawStatus() the touch UI
* setup() / loop() boot / viewfinder + edge-detected button taps
