# Sensor Sleep Mode Example.
# This example demonstrates the sensor sleep mode. The sleep mode saves around
# 40mA when enabled and it's automatically cleared when calling sensor reset().
import sensor, image, time
sensor.reset() # Reset and initialize the sensor.
sensor.set_pixformat(sensor.RGB565) # Set pixel format to RGB565 (or GRAYSCALE)
sensor.set_framesize(sensor.QVGA) # Set frame size to QVGA (320x240)
sensor.skip_frames(time = 3000) # Capture frames for 3000ms.
sensor.sleep(True) # Enable sensor sleep mode (saves about 40mA).
