The Serial Camera, built in snapshot, JPEG compression and serial interface communication module, can be attached to computer and any other embedded devices performing as a video camera or a JPEG compressed still camera for imaging applications.
It uses an Omni Vision CMOS OV5642 sensor along with a JPEG compression chip that provides a low cost and low powered camera system. Its on-board Serial interface is suitable for a direct connection to any host micro-controller UART. The JPEG picture can be captured via serial commands, which leads to monitoring so easy.
