This week most of the time was spent debugging the camera with the Raspberry Pi 3. The camera doesn’t capture the image properly:
This is suppose to be a white ceiling. From extensive debugging, we figured out that a Raspberry Pi 4 will be necessary as the camera needs kernel 5.4. We tried updating the kernel to 5.4 with Raspberry pi 3 but that was not stable. We tried many libraries from Arducam (https://github.com/ArduCAM/MIPI_Camera/tree/master/RPI) and this other than raspistill. None of these solved the problem. Therefore, we have ordered a Pi 4 and the necessary cables. Also I got the wearable display working with the TX1, here is an image of our test video shown on the wearable display:
I am not behind schedule and next week the plan will be to get the camera working with raspberry pi 4 and stream the video captured to the tx1 using ROS so that I can integrate my object detection code.
