HiRes M0107 IMX412 compatiblity with Voxl2 mini board

Sanket Shah

Hardware : Voxl2 mini board only with HiRes M0107 IMX412 camera.
VOXL SDK : 1.0.0

I have a Voxl2 mini board with the MX412 camera. I have connected the J7U pin with configuration 8 as mentioned here :
[https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-camera-configs/#c-08-hires-only](link url)

The camera is detected ( in my logs I get number of cameras as 1 ) but on voxl-inspect-cam -a I get empty table with just camera names.
I was able to get this exact setup working with IMX214 but IMX412 does not seem to work.

What should be my next steps?

@Sanket-Shah Hi Sanket, the M0107 wasn't fully supported until SDK 1.1.0. See this page to upgrade https://docs.modalai.com/flash-system-image/

@Moderator Thanks for the response.

I have flashed to 1.1.1.
In regards to configuring the camera, should I use camera config 8 ( which has 214 only ) or should I make a custom config. Unlike the previous version which had the "--imx412" flag, this version does not seem to have this. How to activate imx412 in SDK 1.1.1?
Thanks.

@Moderator The camera works now with custom config.

Is there a way to stream these images to my local machine without connecting my voxl2 mini to the network?

@Sanket-Shah voxl-inspect-cam can be used to verify it's working and see related stats. You need a GUI of some kind to actually view the image, which requires a network

You can also dump frames or record a video , for example:

voxl-record-video hires_large_encoded /data/vid1.h264

please note the resulting video may not be playable directly, but you can fix it using ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -r 30 -i voxl-record-video.h264 -codec copy videofile.mp4

or play on your PC:

ffplay voxl-record-video.h264 -framerate 30
