ESP32
For networking in arduino IDE and networking devices please refer to inputs week 8
i learned to use kicad in order to view Treyden's ESP32 file.
In my frustration I just imagined taking a bite out of the board. Luckily, I had a plaster model of my teeth which I pressed into clay to trace my real bitemark onto the board.

I am using this space to share an ESP32 board design I made.

Based on an ESP32cam design I could on the course website I designed my own board. Look to http://academy.cba.mit.edu/classes/networking_communications/ESP32/hello.ESP32-CAM.jpg
I designed it in Rhino and then adjusted the colors in illustrator.
I followed the ESP32 steps on Rehana's website to get started
But no port recognition?
On to asking for help… Leo confirmed something bizarre was going on. Turning on the network was turning off the camera and vice versa. A total of 3 people helped me check for shorts. No success. Quinton pointed out my extra set of pins wouldn’t work without power/ground. Noted. Still the ESp32 should have worked….
This is an attempt at networking as displayed on the input devices page of my website. As most things go, this did not work out. When i tried to open the networking function it would shut off the camera. I used code from random nerd tutorials that was suposed to wirelessly stream video.
