<![CDATA[]]> Low Power ESP32 Edge AI Camera<![CDATA[]]>

<![CDATA[]]>Tokay Lite<![CDATA[]]> is the ESP32 camera development board ideal for low-power image processing applications on the edge.

Tokay Lite can be used as standalone devkit to aid developers with a convinient tool or be embedded in the bigger system to augument it with the vision and image processing data.

Tokay Lite Features

  • ESP32-S3 chip compatible with TensorFlow Lite, enabling AI right in the device.
  • OV2640 camera sensor delivering 15 fps @ 2MP.
  • Ultra-low power design: programmable external RTC controls the entire power distribution, allowing the device to consume microamps during sleep.
  • Motion detection with wake-up support.
  • Nightvision mode with software-controlled IR filter to improve pictures during daytime.
  • 10 IR LEDs to illuminate the scene.
  • Ambient light sensor to intelligently select between day and night-time modes.
  • Convenient 70mm x 70mm form factor.
  • Embedded lithium battery charger and JST-PH battery connector.

PCB Dimensions

Tokay LITE is packed into 70x70mm with M3 mounting holes at each corner, as can be seen from a following drawing:
