ESP32-CAM Energy Meter Monitor: LED Pulse Counting for kWh Tracking

This video introduces an embedded system project that uses an ESP32 camera module to count LED flashes from your electricity meter and track energy consumption. Learn how the TTGO T-Camera (a 2-megapixel ESP32-CAM variant with built-in OLED display) captures PWM pulse signals—where each LED flash represents an impulse toward your energy usage. We'll explain the core concept: counting square wave transitions as the LED turns on and off, with approximately 1600 flashes equaling one kilowatt-hour (kWh) of consumed energy. The tutorial covers hardware selection, positioning the camera to detect brightness changes accurately, and integrating the OLED screen for real-time pulse counting visualization. Perfect for DIY home automation enthusiasts building their own smart energy monitoring solutions.
