Hi again, i just found out that SPI RAM on ESP32-Cam is unused.
Is it possible to implement this? i'll try on my own but i'm not really convinced to have enough insight into mp :-(
Here is a modified image (from 2018) with modifications that have been done..

Can you point the modifications, or send me a PR? The flags:

CONFIG_ESP32_SPIRAM_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_SPIRAM_CACHE_WORKAROUND=y
CONFIG_SPIRAM_IGNORE_NOTFOUND=y
CONFIG_SPIRAM_USE_MALLOC=y

which are related with the PSRAM are set to y (yes) - check the sdkconfig.esp32cam file.

Not anymore. You were right. But since PR 8219 the camera can share the PSRAM with MicroPython. Check out the latest firmware and the camera option fb_location=camera.PSRAM. With that option, you can take photos with higher resolution.
