ESP32-CAM: Simple AI Robot (Object Detection | Object Tracking | Lane Tracking)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 май 2020
- In this project, I would like to share with you how to make a simple AI Robot with ESP32-CAM module.
The robot can do the Object Detection, Object Tracking, Lane Autonomous Tracking and remote controlled by the Android Phone. The application would acquire the ESP32 address via a broadcast UDP package (255.255.255.255) , so we don't need to configure the address of the module, we just connect it to the same wifi network with the mobile.
ESP32-CAM firmware and Android source: github.com/longpth/ESP32CamAI
Android Application: play.google.com/store/apps/de...
More detail: www.hackster.io/dragonph/esp3...
The Android Application is tested and run smoothly on Android Phone with specifiation: Android 10, Snapdragon 730, Ram 6GB, 6.39 inches, 1080 x 2340 pixels.
So for best performace, please use the similar or higher specifiation.
Components:
1. ESP32-CAM module x 1
2. L298N Motor Driver module x 1
3. 1:120 Gear Motor x 2
4. wheel x 2
5. ball transfer unit x 1
6. Cardboard
7. Icream stick
8. Portable power bank

I configured my board as Tools/Board/ESP32 Wrover Module, and define CAMERA_MODEL_AI_THINKER for the pins definition. Because there are some different kinds of ESP32-CAM modules, so please check your board and your pins definition respectively.
I clarified my module by trying to run the ESP32 example CameraWebserver first, then keep the setting for my other projects, but it maybe different from yours.
Regarding my code, to make sure the camera module is initialized fine, please enable DEBUG macro in ESP32CamAI ino file, then use Serial Monitor to check if this message is output: "camera init state 0".
Why when i try connect to ip, i cannot display the webcam? Respon please, because this is a really good project👍
@@elektroasik I have published the android source code, I think you should try debugging to figure out your issue, maybe there is some problem with the connection
@@roboticslearner Where you published the android source code? Please give me a URL
@@satriamuhammadazis6786 You can find it here: github.com/longpth/ESP32CamAI
@@roboticslearner what the software to make that android application? Android studi or else?
very very impressive .
seems easy to people , but object tracking takes a lot of time in training the machine to distinguish and come up with a sure results.
Wonderful job you've done there
This is a brilliant project. Thank you. It took me a while to figure it out, but when it worked it was beautiful. It's a complex code thanks for sharing it.
hi sir I am facing problem
esp is not connecting to phone 🥲
help me out pls
Thanks for posting this. Keep up your amazing work 😁
Thank you very much for sharing such a great project, it is magnificent. Congratulations.
Hello engineer, your project is great, thank you
I love this, Thankyou so much for sharing
Great project!, which software did you use for the android app? I see the android source files in java in your github but I'd like to know where did you program it? Thank you in advance
Your projects are so much fun...
thank you. (Samsung galaxy tab A, works great!)
How to connect the app to eps32 can board?? the serial monitor showing "camera init state 0" but app showing "cannot connect to esp32 camera"
please help
plzz make a video in which you will make the complete project step by step. I love this project and want to make it.
Nice info, thanks for sharing it, keep it up :)
Do we have to put short pin on Enable A & B because my robot is not moving at all, rest all computer vision stuff is working well, what to do?? Please reply
Hello there sir. Can you please explain how the code works and what all processes are going in the Esp32cam so that ot can detect objects?
Hi there! I am interested in this kind of projects. I am planning to make an object tracker robot using Arduino UNO, ESP32 camera module and a bunch of servomotors for the movement of the robot. Can you help me for the code for the camera in order to detect and track the object? I would really appreciate if you can help. Thank you very much!
sir can you please share me that which version of esp 32 you will use in these Project like esp32 Ai thinker or only esp32
Great project. In hackster tutorial you mentioned that Android phone can also control the ESP32-CAM GPIOs via UDP package. How to do this? simple code example will help a lot.
Thanks!
Can you please tell ke what should o do after doing all connections..and then what to do?
Hi! Your project is awesome. But I have a question. Is it applicable to use L293D motor driver instead of L298N?
Hi Jayvelou, I think there is no problem.
i would like to know who is performing the "detection" operation . Is it the esp32 or esp32 is simply streaming the video to the phone and then phone is doing all the heavy lifting like the detection and recognition stuff .
Yes, esp32 is used for video streaming and actuator controlling, AI task is executed by phone
Could the camera be used for an edge detection robot?
Hello sir. The project you made was wonderful. Can you please somehow indicate on how would we process the source code? Like should all the source code you've given will be written or just a some of it? Thank you so much, sir!
The android app is not supported in Android 11..Can you please make it for Android 11 and higher..??
Hlw sir your project is great project.
Sir Whether to work with Direct App after uploading the program
Sir, if I want to replace it with my own target detection model, how should I modify the code?
I am adding the zip file esp 32 cam ai in sketch but nothing is coming and same is happening when adding Arduino web socket zip file in sketch. Please help
Nice job, sir. Would it be possible to make the wheels turn right or left to follow the object? Also make the car go forward or backwards if the object gets too far or too close? Thank you.
Yeah, actually yes but because the number of esp32 cam gpios are limited
@@roboticslearner whats that mean?
can i use the blue plastic servo instead the metal one
Hi, I really like your job! Could you recomend some good Object Tracking Tutorial/Guide?
I have downloaded the application from Playstore but it is not connecting to ESP32 cam module What should I do
Hello,friend. Great project. I have a question, Is the pin LEFT_CHANNEL and RIGHT_CHANNEL in the code connected to ENA and ENB of l298N ? Thanks!
Hello Ding, LEFT_CHANNEL and RIGHT_CHANNEL are pwm channels, they are not pin numbers
I’m trying to build something similar to this to sort brass by caliber by using a camera to read a headstamp where can I go for more info to learn how to build what I’m wanting?
Try some ml model with python first
It seems all is OK, except that the speed of the playing video with Android phone is very slow. And I do not know where the bot is because I can not get the picture in time on the phone.
Please help me solve the problem.
Can we connect with only browser because the app is lagging and app is difficult to connect
Is sd card needed for esp32cam in this project?
Can we track and follow a particular object with this ?
I always thought that it might be interesting to look into building a robot like this.
I see that your robot has a vision based line following ability and it can track objects and identify them but can it do anything else with that info?
Thanks for conment, I am thinking how to improve it
@@roboticslearner
It reminds me of the Cosmo and Vector robots.
Can it read bar codes and execute commands based on those barcodes?
Do you have any plans to add any other functions to this robot?
With a project like this have you reached your current range of knowledge in this are?
Do you have a continued interest in this area of exploration as a hobby?
What do you think of the Misty educational robot and other robots like the kuri robot and the Qbo original?
Have you ever played around with any off the shelf robots like a; Darwin, Nao, Cosmo, or a Vector?
How many years of programming do you have? Is it just hobby or college too?
What future robot projects do you have?
Do you find the current state of hobby robotics to be dwindling, stagnating, or plateauing and not advancing?
Wow, your questions encourage me a lots. Yeah sure I want to improve it more ... I am thinking of making it an easy learning stem robot too ...
please give me the wiring diagram for esp32camera and lm298n. thank you
I have done everything then also esp32 cam is not connecting with app why plz help me through it

sorry, i try to implement some similar project in react native webview, how do you handle and ip default from a site, boradcasting to the app?
do you have some react native projects similar to this? using esp32 cam
I mean, how can you translate the ip defualt view to a webview in an application ?
Hi Edward-Hedz30,
I have not used react native before, but I had implemented a web browser remote application using some basic html and javascript, could you check it if it can be somehow a reference : github.com/ANM-P4F/ESP32-CAM-ROBOT
Is this the Ai thinker's Esp32-S you were using? Pls let me know!
I don't think it is
@@roboticslearner then which model you were using?
Could you check my pinned comment, I bought it from a local shop and not sure exactly about the model, so I had to try many times to configure the IDE and pin definition and then figured out which as my pinned comment works

Hello cn u share the code only for the object detection ??
Hai mate this is great!
I have an obstacle program that reads "camera_wrap. H: no such file or directory"
What is the solution?
Hello, could you follow the description below the video?
😍👍
Seeking help here,
Is there any possible if I supply 7.4v instead of 5 v??😅
In that case, you need a converter or an IC ex 7805 to convert from 7.4v to 5v for supplying the esp32 cam module, for the motors, I think you can supply them with 7.4v
the app i can't found in play store link can you give Me the app
May I know the reason y bot is hanging suddenly
where should i connect servo negative wire and we can give 7.4v to the car through motor driver plz answer

Hello! this is very nice project. I tried and it Works! I have som quetions may will improve the robot. for example if trying to turn to left should also right wheel turn in revers direction. The same as to turn to right should left Wheel turn in revers direction. And som time it reset the robot .button LED and object traking not showing in App?The second quetion is what software or program you used to design Android App software? Any advise would be great, thank you!
This one is a prototype I made when I have free time, so it still does not work well in some case I think, but I would improve it in the future, I used Android Studio to make the app.
Thanks for your reply , It will be great if you do a project for how to design App with Android studio for this project.
Yeah! That is a good idea, I am busy this moment, but will come back for more projects in couple of months, please dont forget to take a look at that time ;)
@@roboticslearner please update the code so it work more properly
can face recognition happen offline without laptop for example using just an 12C LCD screen to write names?
Good idea, not yet implemented

Misleading title, the phone is the one doing the AI not the ESP32
Hello please urgently help me
I am getting error "WStype_t" has not been declared 😢
hey buddy, I'm making a project where esp32 cam can identify that is there any person in the room or not and then according to that switch on/off the lights, using its camera module.
plz guide me in this, how to do it ?????
You should use object detection and filter person class only, then count the person if more than zero or not, object detection you could use yolo or ssd mobilenet, but esp32 is not capable of running these cnn itself, so I think you should use esp32 for streaming and control the switch only, ai task should be done eslewhere...
Can we connect through browser ??
does it also work with an i pad
Great work. Do you know if theres is possible to lane tracking byself with the ESP32-cam instead use the android app?. I want to make a lane tracking stand alone with the ESP32-cam. Greetings.
Hi Juan Carlos,
You mean using computer vision? if not I think you can use IR sensors.
@@roboticslearner I mean to process the image and detect the lane byself the ESP32-cam, without needing to send the image to the app (smartphone).
@@JuanCarlos-ff6vp I think we can do it, you could try writing a image gray scale and threshold function, but I worry that ESP does these processing not fast enough, because you need to iterate through the image with size 640x480x3 pixels (I use the resolution 640x480), anyway, you can try it, for ex: stackoverflow.com/questions/54173733/convert-rgb-to-grayscale-in-bare-c. If you run these task on pc or Android, you can use opencv api.
@@roboticslearner I was thinking of applying Hough transform. I am building a robot that runs through the rows of vineyards. The idea is to keep the car in the center of the aisle that forms between the trees. Greetings and thanks for your answers.
Hi Juan Carlos,
I am interested in autonomous driving also, but for that kind of lane tracking, I think you could use segmentation CNN, but ESP seems not sufficient to do that task, if you want to use a same size but stronger controller, I think you can use openmv.io/products/openmv-cam-h7, or raspberry pi/jetson nano are good candidates also.
hello, the android app isnt working can you help please
Sir can you please help I am not able to stream Esp 32 AI cam App
Bro, If I use the sg-90 servo motor instead MG-90S ? WILL IT WORK?
PLEASE HELP 😅
Yeah, I think it is fine
how do i connect to my mobile? pleas tell me
He'llo sir in object tracking when we moving the box infront of espcam then the servo is working when we doing up and down but when we bring the box to left right why the car is not moving this system is only for servo only please say
Yeah, due to the limitation of the gpios so I have not implemented that function
@@roboticslearner can you try to add that also if it can 🙄?

Seeking Help!
I am having issue - the streaming is inconsistent and had to reopen app to restart video streaming. The response also lags..
Also want to know how to add and set own image range in it.
Basically doing it for my daughter as getting into AI is her hobby so much request your help to sort this issue.
Thanks in anticipation!
Hello 2my way, I am not sure about the inconsistent streaming, but there are maybe 2 reason: your network is not good or your esp32-cam hardware has problems, could you try with another wifi access point or another esp32-cam module. Regarding the image range, I am not sure what it is?

You must keep these functions, they are important, it cannot work without these function, you should download the repository and then extract it, there should be ino and cpp, h files inside, then use arduino ide to load the ino file and flash to esp32-cam, then it should work
