How to use VEYE-MIPI-327 camera module on KHADAS EDGE(RK3399 ubuntu)
1 Overview
This guide shows how to use VEYE-MIPI-290/327 on KHADAS Edge Board. We use fenix_0.8.2(20200110) version source code.
VEYE-MIPI-290/327 is STARVIS camera module with ISP functions build in. It output UYVY data using MIPI-CSI2. We provide V4L2 interface for video streaming apps , and Video Control Toolkits (which is Shell Script) to control the camera module directly.
2 Hardware Setup
The system installation is shown as follows in the figure. We have a special Edge adapter board.For Details：（TODO）.
Note：Khadas Edge-V board use i2c-6 for both CAM0 and CAM1,We just support CAM0 now.
3 Download bsp package we provide
Download source code and bsp form link below：https://github.com/veyeimaging/rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp
git clone https://github.com/veyeimaging/rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp.git
4 Using the prebuilt Image to upgrade Khadas Edge
- Install Official Image first
Download Offical Image：https://docs.khadas.com/edge/FirmwareUbuntu.html，We use Edge_Ubuntu-lxde-bionic_Linux-4.4_arm64_EMMC_V20190830 as an example.
Flashing the Edge Board follow manual：https://docs.khadas.com/edge/HowtoBootIntoUpgradeMode.html。
- Upgrading kernel and dtb
The upgrade package path is:
~/rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp/ubuntu/platform/khadas_edge-v
copy kernel-debs.tgz and rkisp-engine-2.0.1_arm64.tgz to Edge Board.
- Installing kernel and dtb
tar -xzvf kernel-debs.tgz
cd kernel-debs
sudo dpkg -i linux-dtb-rockchip-4.4_0.8.2_arm64.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-rockchip-4.4_0.8.2_arm64.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-rockchip-4.4_0.8.2_arm64.deb
- Installing rkisp librarys(as needed)
tar -xzvf rkisp-engine-2.0.1_arm64.tgz
sudo cp -arf rkisp-engine-2.0.1_arm64/* /
5 Using the source code to upgrade Khadas Edge
5.1 Setting Up the Environment
- Installing Fenix and download source code
According to the steps of Khadas：https://docs.khadas.com/zh-cn/edge/FenixScript.html，The latest code is automatically downloaded.
make kernel
5.2 Building from Source
- patch code
cp rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp/ubuntu/drivers_source/VEYE-MIPI-327/veye327.c ~/project/fenix/linux/drivers/media/i2c/
cp rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp/ubuntu/drivers_source/Makefile ~/project/fenix/linux/drivers/media/i2c/
cp rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp/ubuntu/drivers_source/Kconfig ~/project/fenix/linux//drivers/media/i2c/
- add compile option
cd ~/project/fenix/linux/
make ARCH=arm64 kedge_defconfig
make ARCH=arm64 menuconfig
add CONFIG_VIDEO_VEYE327 option.
or you can edit .config to add CONFIG_VIDEO_VEYE327 option.
- build
make kernel && make kernel-deb
the output debs is in ./build/images/debs/0.8.2/ directory.
6 Applications and Test
6.1 Check system status
Run the following command to confirm whether the camera is correctly connected.
dmesg | grep veye327
The output message appears as shown below：
Detected VEYE06 sensor
6.2 Video Stream Toolkits Manual
6.2.1 gst-launch-1.0
- Preview 1080p HD
- Record 1080p HD in H.264 format to a video file
gst-launch-1.0 rkv4l2src num-buffers=512 ! video/x-raw,format=YUY2,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=30/1 ! queue ! mpph264enc ! queue ! h264parse ! mpegtsmux ! filesink location=/tmp/veye_video.ts
- Capturing FHD still image
6.3 Video Control Toolkits Manual
We use DRA(Directly Register Access) mode to set camera paramters. And we provide shell script for using. Location：
rk3399_veye_dimaging_bsp/ubuntu/i2c_cmd
- Check hardware connection
i2cdetect 6
VEYE327camera i2c address is 0x3b.
- use veye_mipi_i2c_rk.sh to setting paramters,-b is i2c bus：
veye_mipi_i2c_rk.sh -b 6

7 Exsiting bugs
7.1 Bug description
- Can not encode to H.264 stream at full framerate
Using the gstreamer instructions used in the previous section to encode the video, the full frame cannot be reached. It can only reach about 17 frames. Limiting all CPU speeds to 600MHz which gives a stable 25FPS in PAL mode.
7.2 Bug Analysis
Although rockchip's rk3399 supports camera module input in yuv format, there is a serious bug in the gstreamer plug-in they provide.
