ESP32 Cam PIR and Chrono Photos
Posted: Wed Feb 09, 2022 7:40 am
Just starting to try some things with ESP32.
I wonder if it is possible to have both of these functions programmed in at the same time.
I want to be able to have motion detection along with periodic snap-shots (hourly).
Would there be danger of crash if it were busy taking a Motion activated photo then the timer also asked for a photo?

- IMPORTANT!!!
- - Select Board "AI Thinker ESP32-CAM"
- - GPIO 0 must be connected to GND to upload a sketch
- - After connecting GPIO 0 to GND, press the ESP32-CAM on-board RESET button to put your board in flashing mode
