heck, i just ordered one imx477 to try out. I wonder which kernel you are working on.
@Avinadad_Mendez had some success with rk3566 and IMX586 but i think he is on kernel 4.19, and is a custom board. The sensor and results seem pretty good.
ops, just ignore, i see you have Rock 3A.
I was in the middle of responding to that part when you backtracked xD
Just wanted to say that I definitely would’ve chosen the 5C Lite over the 3A, had it been available at the time.
Yes and no, the rk3566 makes a lot of sense, it’s a 5th of the price the 3588s has, which makes it really attractive.
Sadly most don’t spend a lot of time on it.
The 4.9 kernel is absolute dog***, no opengl acceleration, fucked up kms driver, it’s just bad.
@IMX477, don’t be that fast with buying stuff, rockchip has different voltages then the raspberry pi or the nvidia jetson, without adapters (and Arducams stuff on which I work is proprietary) you won’t get anything to work
@Rock5c, don’t be fooled, the 5c will get a lot more expensive in the next batch, usually radxa sells boards very cheap in the beginning and pushing the price up after it is adopted. I don’t think it’ll be cheaper than 75$ in the end
Unfortunately, it is on the way. Good luck to me then…
I don’t have raspberry pi or nvidia, so let’s burn it anyway.
I have a question: is there any difference between imx219 and imx477 (pinout)?
Not the one i ordered but interesting anyway:
why didn’t you just order the same camera with the rockchip adapter directly from arducam ?https://www.arducam.com/product/arducam-12mp-imx477p-mini-high-quality-camera-module-for-rock-5a-5b/
Btw. both will not work on the rock3, just to be honest
Thanks for the link.
I wasn’t aware of the release. I was expecting the driver to be open source. Paying US$ 130.00 (import duties included + slow shipping) for a closed driver likely to work with a specific kernel version isn’t cheap.
I still have some hopes for the imx477 (finger crossed), if not on Rock 3A at least on Rock 5B.
Compared to what you pay to develop a camera for a platform it’s sadly … cheap
the driver also usually gets open sourced by me, so that isn’t the issue, but different voltages and firmware on the sensor board itself
I just didn’t get to the rock5 drivers yet, or at least they don’t work in my current opensource builds
Do you plan to host your driver source on github or somewhere else?
everything is on github, and I usually also talk to Joshua-Riek, when I made it work, so it can be pushed into his os
Whoa! I didn’t know they started adapting their cameras for Rock boards…
I personally don’t care if the driver is open source or not.
As long as it can just be installed, that’s good enough for me.
Maybe I don’t have to throw my Rock boards out the window after all…
