      Are there any instructions how to add a new camera sensor to the Starling 2 device? A new camera sensor driver, tunings for it and configuring it for the use of the platform etc.

      I guess this would be a standard Qualcomm driver chi-cdk/oem/qcom/sensor/XXX and tunings done with Chromatix to chi-cdk/oem/qcom/tuning/XXX but what is the build environment to use and how to do the platform configuration?

        @anttukoski , can you please clarify your question :

        Is your goal to attach an additional already supported ModalAI camera or to connect a 3rd party camera to Starling 2?

        Thank you

        Alex

          @Alex-Kushleyev It's a 3rd party camera that is not supported by ModalAI.

            @anttukoski , the only way, currently, to connect a third party camera to VOXL2 is using a USB interface, probably using the standard linux UVC driver (voxl-uvc-server would support this)

            In order have access to the sources and tools to build the sensormodule camera drivers and tuning files, you would need a partner license from Qualcomm, since this is their terms.

            Besides software integration, there is also hardware aspect to supporting the camera, making sure all the connections are properly routed to VOXL2.

            Is there a specific camera that you have in mind (and a specific camera module)?
