Camera Enablement¶
| Module | Camera | Precompiled Image | Yocto Enablement |
|---|---|---|---|

Camera DTB¶
When your Yocto build has finished you will get different dtbs in deploy directory.
The following table gives an overview.
| Module | Camera Supported | .dtb Files |
|---|---|---|
| qs8m-mq00 on qsbase2 | RaspberryPi Camera | imx8mm-qs8m-mq00-qsbase2-dsi83-cam.dtb imx8mm-qs8m-mq00-qsbase2-raspi-display-cam.dtb |
| qsxm-mm60 on qsbase3 | Basler daA2500-60mci | imx8mm-qsxm-mm60-qsbase3-basler.dtb |
| qsxp-ml81 on qsbase3 | Basler daA3840-30mc | imx8mp-qsxp-ml81-qsbase3-basler.dtb |
Use the specific dtb file when booting Linux.
Note
You can change the baseboard variable in U-Boot to get the specific dtb loaded from eMMC.
EXAMPLE
QS8M U-Boot > setenv baseboard qsbase2-raspi-display-cam
Notice: 'fdt_file' changed from 'imx8mm-qs8m-mq00-qsbase2.dtb' to 'imx8mm-qs8m-mq00-qsbase2-raspi-display-cam.dtb'
