This little OV7670 camera module is excellent to be connected to a microcontroller platform, such as Arduino. It's great for constructing a surveillance system. For example, you may use the camera to watch your construction site or to link it to a 3D printer to see the development from afar. The camera module also has a FIFO buffer. The camera utilizes the well-known CMOS technology and has a resolution of 640x480 pixels. In addition to the choices above, you can utilize the module any way you see fit.
