I am attempting to make a colour sorter for a larger project, I am essentially a complete novice when it comes to this however. I have an ESP32-S3R8 microprocessor, and want to connect it to any compatibile camera to eventually detect when certain coloured objects are in its view.
Mostly wondering what camera would be best for this, but if there are any tips for learning what I need for this project that would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Using NXP portfolio we have information that could guide you in the use of camera interface with the MCUs, as for getting started in Camera Interfaces first.
Between the options that I present, they use the OV7670 camera module/ Camera Interface, a very often use camera, The camera interface can be used as Color recognition, this information could be a start introduction.
This documentation gives you introduction on using the camera solution, the interface and API configuration and also a demo.
MCX-N option: Using SmartDMA to implement camera interface in MCXN236
LPC55 Option: AN12868: Camera Interface in LPC55(S)xx | NXP Semiconductors
Additionally, if you are curious about more camera examples, there are examples for different detections using a camera in Application Code Hub,
Best Regards, Luis
