- ESP‑IDF firmware (C/C++) with modules for Camera, Wi‑Fi, UVC, REST/Serial commands, and more

- Python tools for setup over USB serial:
|

- `tools/switchBoardType.py` — choose a board profile (builds the right sdkconfig)

- Composite USB (UVC + CDC) when UVC mode is enabled (`GENERAL_INCLUDE_UVC_MODE`) for simultaneous video streaming and command channel
|
||||
- LED current monitoring (if enabled via `MONITORING_LED_CURRENT`) with filtered mA readings
|
||||
- Configurable debug LED + external IR LED control with optional error mirroring (`LED_DEBUG_ENABLE`, `LED_EXTERNAL_AS_DEBUG`)

## First-time setup on Windows (VS Code + ESP‑IDF extension)

If you’re starting fresh on Windows, this workflow is smooth and reliable:

2. Get the source code
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a folder where you want the repo (e.g., `D:\OpenIris-ESPIDF\`). In File Explorer, right‑click the folder and choose “Open in Terminal”.
|
||||
- Clone and open in VS Code:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/lorow/OpenIris-ESPIDF.git
|
||||
cd OpenIris-ESPIDF
|

3) Install the ESP‑IDF VS Code extension

3. Install the ESP‑IDF VS Code extension
|

|

4. Set the default terminal profile to Command Prompt
|

|

- Press Ctrl+Shift+P → search “Terminal: Select Default Profile” → choose “Command Prompt”.
|
||||
- Restart VS Code from its normal shortcut (not from Git Bash). This avoids running ESP‑IDF in the wrong shell.
|
||||
|
||||
5) Configure ESP‑IDF in the extension

5. Configure ESP‑IDF in the extension
|
||||
|
||||
- On first launch, the extension may prompt to install ESP‑IDF and tools — follow the steps. It can take a while.
|
||||
- If you see the extension’s home page instead, click “Configure extension”, pick “EXPRESS”, choose “GitHub” as the server and version “v5.4.2”.
|
||||
- Then open the ESP‑IDF Explorer tab and click “Open ESP‑IDF Terminal”. We’ll use that for builds.

### 2) Build & flash
|
||||
|
||||
- Set the target (e.g., ESP32‑S3).
|
||||
- Build, flash, and open the serial monitor.
|
||||
- (Optional) For UVC mode ensure `GENERAL_INCLUDE_UVC_MODE=y`. If you want device to boot directly into UVC: also set `START_IN_UVC_MODE=y`.
|
||||
- Disable Wi‑Fi services for pure wired builds: `GENERAL_ENABLE_WIRELESS=n`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3) Use the Python setup CLI (recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Configure the device over USB serial.
|
||||
|
||||
Before you run it:
|
||||
|
||||
- If you still have the serial monitor open, close it (the port must be free).
|
||||
- In VS Code, open the sidebar “ESP‑IDF: Explorer” and click “Open ESP‑IDF Terminal”. We’ll run the CLI there so Python and packages are in the right environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Then run:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd

||||
python .\tools\openiris_setup.py --port COMxx
