After plenty of tweaks and restarting multiple times, the ESP32 has been programmed with the capabilities of streaming it’s video over a secured webserver requiring a Bluetooth connection first. I’m extremely happy with the result, and am glad that it’s done. From here on out, everything we’ll be programming is closer to our wheelhouse as software developers, and I’ve set up documentation to allow for easy access of all of the data provided from the ESP32.
All that’s left hardware wise is finding a powering solution and a casing solution, which I plan on finding both within the next week.
