How to Use CS-MIPI-X Mipi Camera with Raspberry Pi
1 Introduction
CS-MIPI-X is a is a series of mipi camera module which is compatible with RASPBERRY PI. The output format is stanard UYVY stream. It is very easy to use it with RASPBERRY PI.Of course, she also has some subtle differences with the official version，i2c cmd is different.
Theoretically,VEYE Camera Modules support all Raspberry Pi. For performance reasons, I recommend you use 3,3+,4 version. This article uses Raspberry Pi 4 as an example to explain how the CS-MIPI-X camera module working with Raspberry Pi. It also explain the specials of RPI Computer Module and Zero using VEYE Camera Module.
2 About piOS---Bullseye
The latest system of Raspberry Pi - bullseye has removed the support of raspicam by default. But we still have 2 ways to use it.
- 1, Use the legacy version of the OS, that is, do not upgrade to Bullseye.
https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/
- 2, Open legacy camera support in raspi-config on Bullseye. We have upgraded the program to accommodate this usage.
If you want to add the legacy camera interfaces to Bullseye, please click your update icon in the taskbar to update. Then open a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-T) and type ‘sudo raspi-config’, go to ‘Interface Options’ and then ‘Legacy Camera’, and reboot. These camera interfaces are deprecated, and we are not supporting them going forwards.

By the way, Use this cmd to check your system version:
lsb_release -a
3 Hardware Setup
Essentials You Need：
- Raspberry PI Items : RPI, Network, MicroSD Card, Power, Monitor
- Camera Module Items : CS-MIPI-X，FFC，Dupont Wire，Lens.
Setup guide
- Connect the CS-MIPI-X Camera Module the CSI-2 port using FFC Cable（type B).
- Connect Dupont Wire as shown below. CS-MIPI-X need an addtional power.
- Startup RaspberryPi.
- The default power supply mode of CS-MIPI-SC132 is 3.3V via FFC cable, and there is no need to plug in red and black power cable.
4 RaspberryPi System Setup and Configuration
- Setup RasapberryPi System，reference this link.
- Go to the main menu and open the Raspberry Pi Configuration tool. Enable Camera and I2C interface.
sudo raspi-config
- Enable SSH and Samba services.
5 Sofware Toolkits Install
5.1 Toolkits downloading
There are two way to install software toolkits.
- 1. Clone from github
git clone https://github.com/veyeimaging/raspberrypi.git
- 2. Downloading from github (link here), upload to RPI using samba or USB disk.
5.2 Toolkits Overview
Software toolkits contains threeparts. veye_raspcam is raspcam alike Video Stream Toolkits, D_mipi_rpi is D-SDK Video Stream Toolkits, i2c_cmd is Video Control Toolkits.
- Video Stream Tookkits provides real-time display, capture, video recording, etc.
- Video Control Toolkits is a shell script which provides ISP parameters configuration capbility.
- Both is Open Source.
6 Video Stream Toolkits Manual
6.1 Video format
veye type like Video Stream Toolkits support multiple video formats，such as 1080p@30fps,720p@60fps etc..
Please use cs_mipi_i2c.sh cmd videofmtcap,videofmt to query and set the video format before using Video Stream Toolkits.
6.1.1 mode 1 ：use -md option
-md option indicat which format to use，default 0。
| md Value | Video Format |
|---|---|
| 0 | 1080p@30fps |
| 1 | 720p@60fps |
| 2 | VGA@130fps |
6.1.2 mode 2 ：use -w and -h option
-w option indicat width of current video width, -h option indicat height of current video width.

7 Video Control Toolkits Manual
On Raspberry Pi, We use I2C-0 as control bus for VEYE Camera Module. We provide a Shell Script — camera_i2c_config— to config pin usage.
Video Control Toolkits Manual : CS-MIPI-X i2c
The new version of PiOS use i2c-10. If i2c-0 doesn't work, try -b 10.
