====Video Stream Toolkits Manual====
 +
The camera appears as /dev/videoX device node,where X is between [0-5].
  
−
<code>sudo ./apply_binaries.sh</code>  
+
During the Linux boot process, the cameras are detected in the order of i2c bus from smallest to largest. For example, if only one camera is connected, X is 0 regardless of the hardware connection to the location. If 5 cameras are connected, X is reflected as [0-4] according to i2c bus from smallest to largest.

===== Jetson multimedia-api samples =====
 +
The [https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/l4t-multimedia/index.html Jetson Linux API] is available on the Jetson platform for developers to use. Please refer to the official nVidia documentation for the installation of the jetson_multimedia_api package.

+
For VEYE and CS series cameras, the ISP function is already integrated in the camera, so you cannot use libargus to get data, but can directly use the standard V4L2 interface to get data from the /dev/videoX device file.
  
−
For VEYE-MIPI-327
+
The following two samples can be run directly.

===How to port the driver to a third party board===
  
−
For VEYE-MIPI-327
+
==== driver porting ====
 +
For Image, we have added functionality to the official standard Image and have not made any deletions. In general, you can use our compiled Image directly. for special cases, please refer to the source code for integration.
  
−
<code>cp $RELEASE_PACK_DIR/Xavier-NX/JetPack_4.4_DP_Linux_DP_JETSON_XAVIER_NX_DEVKIT/dts\ dtb/VEYE-MIPI-327/tegra194-p3509-0000-a00.dtsi $TX2_DTS_PATH/jakku/kernel-dts/common/</code>
+
For modules it is even easier to just use them. Compiling from source code and is very simple, so I won't go into details here.
  
−
*build
+
==== dts porting ====
 +
We only provide dtb for some boards of Nano, TX2, Xavier, Orin. For the types not provided, it is necessary to：
  
−
<code>cd $L4T_DIR/sources/kernel/kernel-4.9/</code>
+
1. get the dts source code of that board.
  
−
<code>make ARCH=arm64 O=$TEGRA_KERNEL_OUT dtbs</code>
+
2. put our camera related dts to the whole.
  
−
''- TX2''
+
3. recompile to get the dtb of the corresponding board.
  
−
<code>cp $TEGRA_KERNEL_OUT/arch/arm64/boot/dts/tegra186-quill-p3310-1000-c03-00-base.dtb $L4T_DIR/kernel/dtb/</code>
+
The operation steps are not complicated, but there are some third-party base board manufacturers do not open dts source code. This will require the cooperation of all parties to do so.

How to use VEYE and CS series camera module on NVIDIA Jetson Nano,TX2,Xavier and Orin

1 Overview

This guide shows how to use VEYE and CS series camera modules on Jetson boards. Jetson SDK Version is：

  • Jetpack4.2.2,L4T r32.2.1
  • Jetpack4.3,L4T r32.3.1
  • Jetpack4.4,L4T r32.4.3
  • Jetpack4.4.1,L4T r32.4.4
  • Jetpack4.5,L4T r32.5
  • Jetpack4.5.1,L4T r32.5.1
  • Jetpack4.6,L4T r32.6.1
  • Jetpack4.6.1, L4T r32.7.1
  • Jetpack4.6.2,L4T r32.7.2
  • Jetpack4.6.3,L4T r32.7.3
  • Jetpack4.6.4,L4T r32.7.4
  • Jetpack5.0.1DP, L4T r34.1.1
  • Jetpack5.0.2, L4T r35.1
  • Jetpack5.1,L4T r35.2.1
  • Jetpack5.1.1,L4T r35.3.1
  • Jetpack5.1.2,L4T r35.4.1
  • Jetpack5.1.3,L4T r35.5
  • Jetpack6.0,L4T r36.3
  • Jetpack6.1,L4T r36.4

We provide two ways to do so: Prebuilt Binaries or Source Code. Yes, It's Open Source!

VEYE and CS series camera modules are 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, which is called DRA(Directly Register Access).

subdev veye327 [i2c_bus]-003b bound

The [i2c_bus] in the driver prompt message indicates the i2c bus corresponding to this camera.

4.2 Video Stream Toolkits Manual

The camera appears as /dev/videoX device node,where X is between [0-5].

During the Linux boot process, the cameras are detected in the order of i2c bus from smallest to largest. For example, if only one camera is connected, X is 0 regardless of the hardware connection to the location. If 5 cameras are connected, X is reflected as [0-4] according to i2c bus from smallest to largest.

In gstreamer command ，v4l2src and nvv4l2camerasrc has a param device=/dev/videoX to identify which camera to use.

4.2.3 Jetson multimedia-api samples

The Jetson Linux API is available on the Jetson platform for developers to use. Please refer to the official nVidia documentation for the installation of the jetson_multimedia_api package.

For VEYE and CS series cameras, the ISP function is already integrated in the camera, so you cannot use libargus to get data, but can directly use the standard V4L2 interface to get data from the /dev/videoX device file.

The following two samples can be run directly.

4.2.3.1 12_camera_v4l2_cuda

./camera_v4l2_cuda -d /dev/video0 -s 1920x1080 -f UYVY

4.2.3.2 v4l2cuda

./capture-cuda -d /dev/video0 -f UYVY -m -o out.ppm -s 1920x1080 -c 1

4.2.4 v4l2-ctl Application Examples

5 How to port the driver to a third party board

5.1 driver porting

For Image, we have added functionality to the official standard Image and have not made any deletions. In general, you can use our compiled Image directly. for special cases, please refer to the source code for integration.

For modules it is even easier to just use them. Compiling from source code and is very simple, so I won't go into details here.

5.2 dts porting

We only provide dtb for some boards of Nano, TX2, Xavier, Orin. For the types not provided, it is necessary to：

1. get the dts source code of that board.

2. put our camera related dts to the whole.

3. recompile to get the dtb of the corresponding board.

The operation steps are not complicated, but there are some third-party base board manufacturers do not open dts source code. This will require the cooperation of all parties to do so.

6 FAQ and bug list

6.1 VEYE cameras on Jetpack5.x

Jetpack5.x has more stringent requirements for mipi signals in xavier and orin platforms. VEYE-MIPI-xxx series cameras need firmware hdver>=7 to be perfectly supported.

6.2 CS-MIPI-IMX307 combined with Orin nano and Orin NX Green Screen

When CS-MIPI-IMX307 is powered by the 3.3V mode of the FFC cable, the MIPI receiver state machine of Orin nano and Orin NX (Jetpack5.1.1) will enter an incorrect state.

It is recommended to refer to this article and modify the power supply mode of CS-MIPI-IMX307 to use the 5V power supply mode.

6.3 Jetpack5.0.1 DP

This version has many bugs, such as not supporting nvv4l2camerasrc, not recommended to use.

6.4 nv3dsink

Jetpack 5.x no longer supports nvoverlaysink, use nv3dsink instead.
