MIPI Driver for sync stereo camera HAT

8 February 2022

Prerequisites

Make sure that OpenCV is installed properly. This MIPI driver is specific to only RPi OS and will not work on any ARM based Ubuntu OS. If you are running bullseye, enable the legacy camera support from raspi-config and add start_x=1 to /boot/config.txt. Then we are good to go.

Possible errors

libmmal_core.so.0 not found after running make clean && make. This library can be accessed only after enabling the legacy camera support as it depends on the library.

Once the driver is installed, test it out by running 1_test.py. Possible errors could be the orientation error and green tint error which was already discussed here
