Serial JPEG Camera Connectivity

I'd like to add a camera to the Azure Sphere so I can scout out Azure's Machine Vision.

I found a serial camera online that looks like it would do the trick, but I cannot find any example code in C for use with the Sphere. The Azure code examples are C# and use file or URL locations for the image versus posting binary data.

Camera: https://jpegcamera.com/home-featured-product/sc03mpa/#1473811716330-a3fcd95b-cdfd

Does anyone have tips on how I would take the data from the camera which is sent by serial and send it to the Azure Machine Vision site on the Azure Sphere?

Thanks,

Sean

FYI a higher performance 1.2 MP, 60 fps camera (supports a faster SPI interface) was also noted, that's intended for machine vision applications. Pixy2 CMUcam5 https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14678 https…
