Here is the repo for the hardware
With Prusa Connect now fully up and running, it is time to bring it to the next level! Let’s add a camera to check the printing progress.
Over the last years, I developed multiple cameras to check on the print progress of my mini. With Prusa Connect now fully developed, I went the extra mile to develop something that smoothly integrates into your personal Prusa Connect!
On initial configuration the Print Camera sets up its own wifi hotspot, this makes it easy for you to configure your wifi and Prusa Connect details.
I would love to give you the possibility to add a simple camera to your setup and make print spaghetti a thing of the past.
Details:
- 640×480 resolution (possible future upgrade to 600×800)
