Which functions of isp do you need, please?

Just AE,IS and crop, if there was a way to skip ISP, I'd do.
Other reqs would come up later, now I just can't start developing CV part.

@veye_xumm After deep analysis of rkisp driver I see two completely different implementations:

1. from vendor: https://github.com/JeffyCN/mirrors/commit/72e4ba0ccf477a6d90f40a2fb5e3bc9e5025093b. That one explicitly supports MEDIA_BUS_FMT_Y8_1X8 and MEDIA_BUS_FMT_Y10_1X10 as input for ISP. I tried to bring all the changes to mainline (5.15.90) but it still fails somewhere when setting pipeline
2. from collabora, mainline kernel, it seems to also have some mono camera support https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/9a0e3cd50d3967b669f0f0ea79a7054c7877d95b. But they require the camera to be set to YUV422 which can't be done with RAW-MIPI-SC132M

@veye_xumm said in Please advise compatible mono camera:

mv seriescamera access to rockchip platform is what we are promoting. It is estimated that it will be completed within a month.

EDIT: There's also a warning "mvcam 4-003b: Consider updating driver mvcam to match on endpoints", not sure if it's harmful or not
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.1/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c#L142

Ok will work on no.1 while waiting for any updates from you
Thanks!

@veye_xumm
Just finished setting up RAW-MIPI-SC132M camera on rock pi 4b using rpi mvcam ported driver.
Now I'm trying to create a working rkisp1 pipeline, which is not straightforward for me, so I've got some questions:

1. The sensor supports only Y8 and Y10 formats so how do I map it to ISP which supports only YUV/RGB/bayer formats? At the moment I'm getting 'Broken pipe' error. In topology (below) I need to map formats of rkisp1_isp:pad0 and 'mvcam 4-003b:pad0
2. How to upgrade camera's firmware? Didn't find any sources on your github, only binaries (incompatible).

EDIT: So this setup is to use the sensor in OpenMV, if rkisp1 just can't work with mono cams, is there any other way to use this cam in my configuration?

Below is media topology for reference:

@veye_xumm thanks for the input, will give it a try with SC132 on rock pi 4b+, sure there will be lot to do with dts.
Yes it's old, but still good in terms of cores/RAM/M.2 support, it only lacks extra CSI and 4 lanes/MIPI CSI-2 support.
It'd be really cool to see your roadmap with all stuff planned and I hope there will be Orange Pi 5 with SC130 adapter for my next project.

Hi there, I'm interested in SC130 and SC132 mono cameras, going to use them on Rock Pi 4B+ now and probably later on Orange Pi 5.

Concerning Rock Pi 4B+ (RK3399): I see there were some issues with similar board (http://wiki.veye.cc/index.php/VEYE_MIPI_327_for_Nano_Pi_4_ubuntu#Exsiting_bugs) and different camera, but I guess the tests were not done on mainline 5.10+ kernels (which has rkisp1 official support). Anyway I'll probably need an adapter.
Concerning Orange Pi 5: I see you support t-firefly ROC-RK3588S-PC, but Pi 5 uses different type of camera connector, so the adapter is definitely required.

So the question is are those two sensors compatible with two stated boards?
