Step 2Camera Setup
We are using the LinkSprite JPEG Color Camera. I ordered mine from SparkFun and at the time did not realize that they also sold JST wire assembly that fits the connector. Instead of getting the correct cabling, I pulled of the connector off and soldered wires. I would recommend using some ribbon cable to help keep organized.
On the LinkSprite itself VCC, GND, RX, and TX are labeled. Solder VCC-VCC, GND-GND, RX-TX, and TX-RX.
At this point, I would highly suggest testing the camera. Luckily, LinkSprite has provided great working example code that streams a photo directly to the serial terminal. (Original LinkSprite Arduino code can be downloaded here)
