Build Your Own WiFi Doorbell Camera with ESP32 – Instant Telegram Alerts When Someone Knocks

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Ever wondered who’s at your door while you’re in another room or even away from home? This kit turns that curiosity into a real, working project. You’ll wire an ESP32-CAM module, a doorbell button, and indicator LEDs on a breadboard, then program it all to snap a photo the moment someone presses the button and beam it straight to your Telegram app over WiFi. It’s a hands-on dive into smart home technology that leaves you with a useful gadget you can show off.

What You'll Build

You’ll assemble a complete doorbell camera that detects a press, lights an LED, captures a high-resolution photo, and delivers it to your mobile device through a Telegram bot. The breadboard layout keeps everything tidy and modifiable, and the 5V power supply means you can leave it plugged in and running. Once done, you’ll have a personal surveillance tool you made yourself—no complex coding or soldering required.

What You'll Learn

• Programming the ESP32-CAM to take pictures and connect to WiFi.
• Creating a Telegram bot and sending photos using HTTP requests.
• Wiring a tactile switch and LEDs with proper power regulation on a breadboard.
• Debugging an IoT project using the serial monitor and logical troubleshooting.
