VD66GY with IMX8M Mini

[FB__1]

Hello ST Brightsense Team,

Would like to know if the VD66GY Linux driver (STSW-IMG503_V4L2) will work on an NXP IMX8M Mini (no hardware ISP) ?  If not will it work with the IMX8M Mini Plus (with Hardware ISP).

Currently using the STEVAL-66GYMAI.
In the STSW-IMG503_V4L2 package, the provided driver / device tree seems for the Raspberry PI, what would be the required changes for that to work on NXP IMX8 platform ? Is the vd56g3.json ISP tuning file required ( no libcamera installed, only using Gstreamer)...

Thank you.

Hello @CyrilTechPro ,

From https://community.nxp.com/pwmxy87654/attachments/pwmxy87654/imx-processors/206209/1/AN13713(8MP%20ISP%20New%20Camera%20Porting).pdf 

"In addition,
get the camera calibration files (.xml), dewarp calibration files (.json), and sensor-
configuration files (.cfg) ready to set correct ISP parameters and stream mode."

Where can i find those files for the ST - VD66GY camera ?

Thank you.
