Arduino Uno and OV7670

Other Hardware Sensors
1

I have little arduino experience, only doing minor things as using LEDs, pressure and temperature sensors. For a school project it would be amazing to have a camera to document with. I have searched and searched for schematics and code, but they rarely come together. There have been much talking about FIFO and no FIFO, ram and shields. I think I get the gist of it, but do not know how to handle it at all.

I only have the camera, no shield or anything else. I also have an Arduino Uno.

I also found out there are multiple versions of the OV7670 so I'll show you mine:

The pins it has (it is hard to see)
3V3 GND
S1OC (or SIOC) S1OD (or SIOD)
VSYNC HREF
PCLK XCLK
D7-D0
RESET PWDN

The idea is to save the images or atleast the output on a SD-card (can be decoded later).

SD-card reader:

Do anyone of you have any experience and are willing to share schematics and code?
Thank you very much!

Myself.. and many others have that camera. Almost impossible to get a picture to a memory card.
The openlog module isn't the right choice for a stream of bytes.

The "arducam" shield has the FIFO needed, but it costs..
You may want to forget it.. and restart.

start with searching for what is 'supported'. here

Storage adapter like this one

I had a hunch it wouldnt work :confused:
Thanks anyway!
