Im very frustrated. I bought an Esp32 Camera module from amazon. I'm trying to program the Esp through an arduino nano, since I dont have a FTDI adapter for the camera. My current connection is as follows:
Arduino GRN -> Arduino RST
Arduino 5v -> esp Vcc
Arduino GRN -> esp GRN
Arduino RX -> esp U0T
Arduino TX -> esp U0R
esp DOI -> esp GRN
Here is the code Im using:
#include "esp_camera.h"
#include <WiFi.h>
#include "esp_timer.h"
#include "img_converters.h"
#include "Arduino.h"
#include "fb_gfx.h"
#include "soc/soc.h" //disable brownout problems
#include "soc/rtc_cntl_reg.h" //disable brownout problems
#include "esp_http_server.h"
//Replace with your network credentials
const char* ssid = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID";
const char* password = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD";

Here is the module I purchased: Amazon.com
I have tried so many things and I cant get this god forsaken thing to program.. The only videos out there on it use the FTDI module and/or they arnt helpful. Any ideas?
I'm trying to get the bluetooth to work so I can use it as a wireless webcam.
EDIT: I also keep getting this error when I try to upload it:
"A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header"
