Who Cares About MCU with Camera?

In this video, we are going to have a vision test with two MCUs, Arduino Portenta Vision Shield and ES32-CAM(OV5640).
Unfortunately, acquiring and processing images from the camera module is a resource-intensive task. If you want high-quality images and fast FPS, you'd be better off using Single Board Computers like Raspberry Pi. Nonetheless, I want to try what is possible in the MCU's low power and lack of resource environment.
I hope this video will be helpful to anyone who wants to do a vision project.
