Hello! 

This is a simple case and baseplate for mounting an ESP32-Cam (AI Thinker and ESP32-CAM-MB) onto a door with a peephole. 

  • I didn't use a card with the esp32.
  • I was going to mount this with a hinge assembly so the peephole could be manually checked, but that lets light through so it would be noticeable from the outside.
  • I've included the step files for both pieces so you can modify as needed. 
  • I didn't include cable relief in case it made the mount unbalanced and crooked. 
  • I went with an open case design for heat dissipation.
  • XVGA & VGA (quality 10, fb 2) captures shown.

Assembly instructions:

  1. Snap the ESP32-Cam into the case.
  2. Unscrew the peephole.
  3. Insert the interior peephole piece through the baseplate.
  4. Screw the peephole back together.
  5. Snap the case into the baseplate.

My interior peephole piece measurements:

  • 12mm diameter
  • 15mm outer lip diameter
  • 2mm outer lip thickness

I disabled WIFI sleep  in the arduino ide to get better performance. 

WiFi.setSleep(false);
Serial.println("WiFi sleep disabled");

I followed Random Nerd Tutorials to program the esp32-cam. 

Make sure to press the RST button after powering it up to run your code.
