Does the IMX462 not support the CAM_B/C socket on oak-ffc-4p?

MulongDeng

I have tested connecting the IMX462 to the CAM_B/C socket and then running the `camera_isp.py` script. However, no frame is displayed. When I connect it to the CAM_A/D socket instead, the frame is successfully displayed.

Does this mean the IMX462 is not supported with the CAM_B/C socket?

Hey MulongDeng - sorry for late answear, I had to check with the team. Yes you are correct, IMX462 needs 4 lane MIPI which is only on CAM_A and CAM_D.
Thanks,
Oskar

I noticed that the document mentions the `MIPI lanes` as 2. I just wanted to check if this is accurate. Also, I'm curious to know if there are any plans to support this configuration in the future.

Hey MulongDeng - thanks for bringing this up. The HW of IMX462 supports 2 lanes also, but we currently only have a 4-lane config. If there will be a lot of demand or if this is crucial for you, we could add the 2 lanes also.

MulongDeng

Thank you. It’s not a priority for us at the moment.

MulongDeng - okay, let me know if that changes.
Best,
Oskar
