=== Streaming ESP32-CAM Video to Home Assistant === The '''ESP32-CAM''' is a versatile and affordable camera module that can be used for various projects. In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to set up video streaming from the ESP32-CAM to '''Home Assistant''', allowing you to monitor your surroundings remotely. false en Attribution (CC BY) Streaming_FireBeetle_ESP32_Camera_Video_to_Home_Assistance_1.JPG none <nowiki>Open the Arduino IDE and navigate to the ESP32 examples. 1.
