Make memories, or just a cool camera-based project, with Adafruit’s MEMENTO Camera Board. It’s a development board with everything you need to create programmable camera and vision projects: with a camera module, TFT preview screen, buttons, and SD card slot, and driven by a powerful ESP32-S3 with 2 MB of PSRAM for buffering 5 MegaPixel camera images.
The Adafruit MEMENTO Camera Board guide has been updated with instructions for compiling Arduino/C++ code using the PlatformIO IDE. The PyCamera Arduino library brings in many dependencies and takes a looong time to compile using Arduino IDE. Suppose you’re working on an advanced MEMENTO project that requires additional dependencies, such as a component from the ESP-IDF component registry. In that case, you’ll want to compile the PyCamera Arduino project using PlatformIO rather than Arduino IDE.
How fast is it? Very! Using PlatformIO compiles the PyCamera Library Test example in ~4.10 seconds.
