This example demonstrates how to use the JPEG hardware [encoder](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32p4/api-reference/peripherals/jpeg.html) to encode a 1080p picture:
This example makes use of the hardware-based JPEG encoder. If you have multiple pictures that need to be decoded, such as *.rgb -> *.jpg, you can use this example to accelerate encoding.
## How to use example
### Hardware Required
* An Espressif development board based on a chip listed in supported targets
* A USB cable for power supply and serial communication
* Computer with ESP-IDF installed and configured
* The raw picture is the only source that you need to prepare (We have an [esp1080p.rgb](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/examples/peripherals/jpeg/jpeg_encode/resources/esp1080.rgb) in resources folder, you can also get it from [jpeg_decode](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/examples/peripherals/jpeg/jpeg_decode) example).
Before you start build and flash this example, please put the image `esp1080.rgb` in your sdcard.
Enter `idf.py -p PORT flash monitor` to build, flash and monitor the project.
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
