Introduction
The following instructions will allow you to add support for the e-con Systems MIPI camera VCAM-AR1335E to your Yocto images.
This will allow you to stream images/video from a e-con Systems camera VCAM-AR1335E connected to a Variscite evaluation kit.
Download the Variscite Yocto BSP
Please follow Build Yocto from source code.
Execute steps 1-4.3 to download the BSP sources, but don't run bitbake yet.
Download and install the e-con meta layers
$ wget ftp://customerv:Variscite1@ftp.variscite.com/e-con/sumo-fsl-4.14.98/meta-econ-imx8.tar.gz $ tar xf meta-econ-imx8.tar.gz -C ../sources $ wget ftp://customerv:Variscite1@ftp.variscite.com/e-con/sumo-fsl-4.14.98/meta-variscite-imx-econ.tar.gz $ tar xf meta-variscite-imx-econ.tar.gz -C ../sources
Customize configuration files
Customize bblayers.conf
Add the following lines to conf/bblayers.conf under your Yocto build directory:
BBLAYERS += " ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-econ-imx8 "
BBLAYERS += " ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-variscite-imx-econ "
Customize local.conf
Add the following to conf/local.conf under your Yocto build directory:
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \
econ-camera-driver \
"
MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RDEPENDS += "kernel-module-econ-camera-driver"
Build a Yocto image
Continue following Build Yocto from source code from where you left off, to bitbake and install an image.
Testing the e-con Systems camera
Follow the DART-MX8M-MINI Camera page to test the camera.
Prebuilt recovery SD card image
A prebuilt recovery SD card image with e-con camera support can be downloaded from:
Note: Some web browsers have removed FTP support. Please see our FTP wiki page.
