{"product_id":"miniature-ttl-serial-jpeg-camera-with-ntsc-video","title":"Miniature TTL Serial JPEG Camera with NTSC Video","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis Mini JPEG Camera Module captures colour images and video in a compact form factor, with built-in motion detection and serial image transfer, making it a great fit for security, monitoring, and data-logging projects.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\n\u003cp\u003eThis tiny little camera module can be a pretty neat project addition, it is just like our other \u003cstrong\u003eJPEG\u003c\/strong\u003e cameras (same chipset\/software), but much smaller and slimmer. It was designed to be used in security systems and does two main things - it \u003cstrong\u003eoutputs NTSC colour video\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ecan take snapshots of that video\u003c\/strong\u003e (in colour) and transmit them over the TTL serial link. You can snap pictures at \u003cstrong\u003e640x480\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e320x240\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e160x120\u003c\/strong\u003e and they're pre-compressed JPEG images which makes them nice and small and easy to store on an SD card. Perfect for a data-logging, security, or photography project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne nice thing about this particular camera is all the '\u003cstrong\u003eextras\u003c\/strong\u003e' that come with it. For example it has auto-white-balance, auto-brightness and auto-contrast taken care of for you as well as motion detection built in! That means you can have it alert your project when something moved in the frame. The lens is manually adjustable, it has a \u003cstrong\u003e1-15 meter focal distance\u003c\/strong\u003e by default which is good for most projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also carry a much larger, but enclosed weather-proof version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the module is pretty easy and only requires two digital pins (or a TTL serial port) - by default it transmits at \u003cstrong\u003e38400 baud\u003c\/strong\u003e. Of course we wouldn't just leave you with a datasheet and a 'good luck', we even spent a lot of time researching the module and DSP to make really nice libraries for both Arduino \u0026amp; CircuitPython, with example code that shows how to change the image size and compression quality, detect motion, control the video output stream, etc. That and more is available in our very detailed tutorial that will help get the most use out of your camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExample photo 1 (outside street) \u0026amp; example photo 2 (inside person).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N2lcKqubDE8?si=Jp-FTxhI8rt-cOuM\u0026amp;start=295\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact camera module with NTSC colour video output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptures JPEG snapshots at 640x480, 320x240 or 160x120 resolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-compressed JPEG images for easy storage and transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTTL serial communication at 38400 baud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuto-white-balance, auto-brightness and auto-contrast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in motion detection with alerting capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManually adjustable lens with 1-15 metre focal distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires only two digital pins or TTL serial port for operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Arduino and CircuitPython libraries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes comprehensive tutorial and example code\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for security, data-logging and photography projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModule size: 20mm x 28mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModule Weight: 3g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage sensor: CMOS 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCMOS Pixels: 30M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePixel size: 5.6um*5.6um\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual focus adjustable from 5 to 15meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput format: Standard JPEG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite balance: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExposure: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShutter: Electronic rolling shutter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSNR: 45DB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic Range: 60DB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax analogue gain: 16DB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame speed: 640*480 30fps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScan mode: Progressive scan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViewing angle: 60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage size: VGA（640*480), QVGA（320*240), QQVGA（160*120）\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaud rate: Default 38400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent draw: 75mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating voltage: DC +3-5V (the power pin is marked 3.3V but it goes into a 3-5V input regulator so you can power it with 3-5VDC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunication: 3.3V TTL （Three wire TX, RX, GND）\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLibrary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTC-08 Datasheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDSP Management tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtocol cheat sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTutorial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Miniature TTL Serial JPEG Camera with NTSC Video\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44930761326681,"sku":"tgk1789672082477","price":35.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/5289\/5833\/files\/miniature-ttl-serial-jpeg-camera-with-ntsc-video_1.jpg?v=1789672086","url":"https:\/\/gymflexfit.shop\/products\/miniature-ttl-serial-jpeg-camera-with-ntsc-video","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
