The second version of the “matchboscope” https://www.printables.com/model/412753-esp32-microscope-matchboxscope 

Here we introduce the ESPressoscope, a microscope as big as an espresso cup :)

We moved away from the ESP32-Cam and are using the XIAO ESP32S3 Sense board. It is slightly more expensive (€16-18) but is way more reliable than the previous board. 

It can be used to find tardigrades around your garden and is good enough to see zooplanktons and other microanimals. 

The instructions and the bill of materials are in the PDF file. 

This video shows the building process (10 minutes build):
