Drivers for ST BrightSense Image Sensors for STM32N6 Series μCs and STM32MP2 Series SoCs

Will_Robertson · ‎2024-12-29

Hi,

I was wondering if there were plans to make drivers for the ST BrightSense image sensors available for the ST STM32N6 Series μCs (these could be bare metal, FreeRTOS, ThreadX or Zephyr drivers) or for ST STM32MP2 Series SoMs (in the form of libcamera drivers)?

I heard that drivers for the VD66GY image sensor are planned for the STM32N6 Series μCs but I wasn't sure about the other BrightSense image sensors.

Providing drivers for the ST BrightSense image sensors for the STM32N6 Series μCs and STM32MP2 Series SoCs would allow ST customers to fully leverage the enormous power of both ST image sensors and the leading ISP and AI capabilities of STM32N6 and STM32MP2 while developing a solution entirely within the ST ecosystem. Having drivers provided by ST instead of coding our own drivers would enormously speed route to market and reduce risk.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi @Will_Robertson,

We have Linux drivers available for the VD66GY RGB camera and the VD16GZ RGB-IR camera.

Here are the links to the drivers for both sensors: VD66GY , VD16GZ.

I hope this is what you were looking for!

Regards, Megane
