To upload code via the Arduino IDE, you will need a separate FTDI USB-to-TTL serial converter. You must connect the TX, RX, 5V, and GND pins, and briefly short GPIO 0 to GND to put the board into flashing mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: My video feed looks blurry. Is the camera broken?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Most likely not! The RHYX-M21-45 camera lens has a manual focus ring. Carefully twist the small black lens ring on the camera module clockwise or counter-clockwise until the image on your stream sharpens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why does my ESP32-CAM keep resetting or suffering from \"brownout\" errors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The ESP32 chip and the camera draw significant current spikes, especially when using Wi-Fi or turning on the flash LED. If you are powering it from a weak USB port or thin jumper wires, the voltage will drop, causing a \"brownout detector was triggered\" error. Ensure you are using a robust 5V power supply capable of providing at least 1A to 2A of current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × ESP32-CAM Development Board (RHYX-M21-45)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × 2MP RHYX-M21-45 Camera Module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORTED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48360591851758,"sku":"IOT-29185","price":699.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2132\/9029\/files\/ESP_32_CAM_BOARD_WITH_2MP_CAMERA_RHYX-M21-45.jpg?v=1784630469","url":"https:\/\/www.tomsonelectronics.com\/products\/esp32-cam-development-board-with-2mp-camera","provider":"Tomson Electronics ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
