This document details the features and characteristics of the STEVAL-IFV001V1 camera based on the STM32. The camera can be connected to the ZigBee and includes a microSD card and ZigBee module. It works with the monitoring unit (order code STEVAL-CCM003V1). The camera unit can be powered by USB or battery. A slider switch on the board allows selection of the power source.
The document introduces the STEVAL-IFV001V1, a complete system designed as two separate hardware units: a camera unit and a monitoring unit. The camera unit is based on the STM32 microcontroller and includes an integrated ZigBee module (SN260) for wireless communication.
The device captures JPEG images from a camera sensor using DMA and transfers them via the SPI-controlled ZigBee network to reduce transfer time. It also supports recording images to an onboard microSD card using the FAT file system, either manually or triggered by motion detection via a PIR sensor.
The camera unit can be powered either by USB or by a battery, with a slider switch on the board to select the source.
The images are transferred in JPEG format to help reduce transfer time on the ZigBee network.
