e-con Systems Camera¶

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¶

$ git clone https://github.com/varigit/meta-econ-imx -b dunfell ../sources/meta-econ-imx

Customize configuration files¶

Customize bblayers.conf¶

Add the following lines to conf/bblayers.conf under your Yocto build directory:

BBLAYERS += " ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-econ-imx "

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.
