Stereo camera bit rate customization?
-
Hi, Can the bit rate of stereo cameras be lowered to support longer a MIPI extension?
I am trying to add rear stereo capability to our drone but we cannot run it without using two MIPI extensions and have come to discover that it just won’t work at 30cm of MIPI in the stock configuration. Is it possible to lower the bit rate to allow for the stereo signal to not fail and if so would it still be feasible for object avoidance functionality? When the stereo pair is on the dual extensions it will not function at all but with a single extension it works fine.

Can you please confirm that in your 30cm extension use case you are using:
(starting from VOXL side..)- M0076 interposer
- 2x M0036 15cm flexes (connected back to back)
- M0010 stereo splitter
- 2x M0015 OV7251 cameras
Also, are the cameras being detected when using
voxl-camera-server -l
but the stream does not work? or neither detection nor streaming work?We will try to reproduce your test case first and lets go from there..
