I have been working on small motion camera devices like this using off-the-shelf parts, and getting 1080p to stream over wifi with arducams is nontrivial. There's a lot of special MCU features you need or you're effed: enough GPIO for the camera and the SDCARD, h.264 acceleration, enough RAM to run the LWIP stack and TLS (or crypto accelerator), zero wait-state memory. Trying to get good battery life is a whole different ball of wax. Hats off the companies that finally nailed this.

EDIT: Part 3 of this is truly impressive. OP decoded the IP used, and it came from freaking EVERYWHERE.
