How to get the data of captured image in esp32-cam

Postby nataly » Mon Oct 18, 2021 1:41 pm

I'm working on this code that take capture and then save the image in SD card ,
I need to know how can I get the data of image to make some image processing on these data(I need this data as a numeric value) before it save as jpeg image in sd card ? I don't have any idea how can do that any help please?

Code: Select all

#include "esp_camera.h"
#include "Arduino.h"
#include "FS.h"                // SD Card ESP32
#include "SD_MMC.h"            // SD Card ESP32
#include "soc/soc.h"           // Disable brownour problems
#include "soc/rtc_cntl_reg.h"  // Disable brownour problems
#include "driver/rtc_io.h"
#include <EEPROM.h>            // read and write from flash memory
 
// define the number of bytes you want to access
#define EEPROM_SIZE 1
 
// Pin definition for CAMERA_MODEL_AI_THINKER
#define PWDN_GPIO_NUM     32
#define RESET_GPIO_NUM    -1
#define XCLK_GPIO_NUM      0
