OV5640 camera with Orange Pi

[@lex]

@mattday,

 

Can you please check if your current OV5640 setup can work with this Guvcview version, and give some feed back about the FPS and %cpu usage, etc, etc...

@lex, not working on first try - PM sent.

Ok, @mattday is using opione headless and if the window size is larger than current fb, it crashes. He could see some activities with 640x480.

Maybe he will send me one camera and i can test it and possibly fix if anything wrong.

 

Meanwhile @lvmc sent me M2P and i tested it today with gc2035, it it works!

I think we need OV5640 AF for the OPI H64 / A64 and OPI one / PC / 2E !!!!!!!!

 

Here is the 1600x1200 taken with M2P:

Well then, i have some news about OV5640, it is working on m2p, finally. On Armbian!

[lvmc]

OV5640/SinoVoip AF is working on multiple resolutions, check this 640x480 shot on moderate lighting conditions.

 

[tkaiser]

Can someone please enlighten me about the status of different boards and camera modules?

 

If I understood correctly we can use both Xunlong's cheap GC2035 module and SinoVoip's OV5640 module on BPi M2+ and Orange Pis? Is the 'extend board' necessary (needed on OPi PC/One/Lite with GC2035)? What's required regarding drivers?

 

BTW: SinoVoip announced an A64 board yesterday. They say the camera module would be compatible to BPi M2+ but by looking at 'specifications' (most probably the usual 'copy&paste gone wrong crap this vendor is so famous for') further questions arise ('CSI Camera Connector is a 40-pin FPC connector' vs. 'CSI Camera Connector is a 24-pin FPC connector' and on the image they're not talking about MIPI/CSI but a parallel interface instead. And I would suspect the @sinovoip muppet providing this sort of anti information doesn't even get the idea what's wrong with this mess)

[lvmc]

@tkaiser

 

Oranges

GC2035 FF/Xulong is working with @lex, already merged on Armbian;

From the original gc2035.c driver found typically on Linux, @lex driver provides much better FPS rates and resolutions.

modprobe gc2035
modprobe v4l2_vfe
fswebcam --Hflip 1 -r 640x480 -p YUV420P - > cam640x480_1.jpg

OV5640 AF/SinoVoip is working on Oranges, with the same drawbacks as explained for Bananas (see below).

 

Bananas

GC2035 FF/Xulong is working, same comments as for Oranges;

OV5640 AF/SinoVoip is working but there are several bugs on ov5640.c driver. To temporaly overcome these bugs, @lex modified fswebcam to retrieve frames bypassing driver missing features.

modprobe ov5640
modprobe v4l2_vfe
fswebcam --Hflip 1 -r 640x480 -p YUV420P - > cam640x480_1.jpg

Fixing all issues ov5640.c is complex and requires a lot of efforts, we don't have a fixed schedule to do it yet... but I report that multiple resolutions are currently working... will keep community updated as we move, if we move in that direction. My personal target would be to have the driver fixed to run a basic OpenCV frame grabbing code...

#include <iostream>
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>

using namespace std;

int main() {  
  Mat frame;
  VideoCapture cap;  
  
  if (!cap.open("/dev/video0")) {
    cout << "Failed to OPEN /dev/video0" <<endl; return -1;
  }

  while(; {
    cap >> frame;
    if (frame.empty())
      break;

      cout << "Failed to RETRIEVE frame from /dev/video0" <<endl; return -1;
  }

  return 0;
}

For both OV5640 AF / SinoVoip or GC2035 FF / Xulong, on both Oranges (except Orange Pi One or Orange Pi PC) or Bananas, you can connect modules directly to DVP camera connector (24pin connector), no extension board is required.

 

On the hardware side we discovered that both Oranges and Bananas adopted 180º reversed pins layout, when comparing to most of the camera modules that are available for sale from other suppliers. My guessing is that they have changed it to somehow force customers buy their own cameras.

 

 

 

To overcome that I personally partnered with camera factory to develop new GC2035 FF and OV5640 FF modules with the correct pin layout... it is under production right now. As soon I test the new modules next week, I will start selling cameras modules to help me amortize factory custom development costs and help community.

 

Note: FF stands for FIXED FOCUS, while AF stands for AUTO FOCUS.

 

By the way SinoVoip has been extremely supportive with me, proving me hardware as requested. On the other side Steven/Xulong seems to definitely not be interested in solving it... he just told me "It doesn't work, only with our own GC2035 cameras".

[@lex]

Now, to add to the confusion, AF pin 23 / pin 24 on Sinovoip OV5640 sensor seems inverted from what i think it should be, or compared to FriendlyArm OV5640.

Since i don't know  the Orange PI pinout connector, i think one should take some care while sticking the OV5640 AF on OPI, if someone does and it works, please, post in here, well, if not post in here also.

 

Xunlong GC2035 (2M) => FF (Fixed Focus) so Pin 23 / Pin 24 NC

Sinovoip OV5640 (5M) => AF (Auto Focus)

FrienldyArm OV5640 (5M) => AF

Lemaker OV5640 (5M) => AF

Pine64+ S5K4EC (5M) => FF

 

From my understanding (not a hardware guy), Sinovoip A64 adopted the same CSI to save cost, so i think GC2035 and OV5640 will both work, which is nice. So it is CSI 24 pin, not parallel. I believe the 40 pin connector is the Raspi standard gpio way and  the adoption of the DSI LCD display is a fail, i can drive a 18.4" LVDS LCD panel with resistive touch on my cubieboard (A20), and you won't find a cheap DSI LCD panel (> 10.1") anywhere.

 

At least $ 35 is a good price  if it comes with 8 GB eMMC / BT / 2GB / Wifi.

 

Pine64+ schematic tells it is the same CSI plus 2 NC pins. I have not looked at the connector to see if it is 26 pins or 24 pins.

[lvmc]

@lex

 

AF pins 23 and 24 need further investigation, it is maybe swapped too... especially on OV5640 AF / SinoVoip... but I will not focus on solving it for now.

 

I think a good idea would be to create a reference/comparison table with camera modules from different factories/brands.

[mattday]

For both OV5640 AF / SinoVoip or GC2035 FF / Xulong, on both Oranges or Bananas, you can connect modules directly to DVP camera connector (24pin connector), no extension board is required.

 

This is wrong. Please don't plug your camera directly into an Orange Pi One or Orange Pi PC. They output 5V on pins 1 & 24. You need the expansion board to drop this to 2.8V/1.8V for the camera.

 

With Orange Pi 2, Orange Pi Mini and Orange Pi Plus you can connect the camera directly (according to the schematics, as I have not personally tried these).

 

I also don't believe Xunlong/SinoVoip have changed any camera pin layouts. They are just working with what is available and there is no standard.

[@lex]

Hi @mattday,

 

Thanks for the warning!

 

So please, where are this "not changed" pin layout sensors available from that will work on OPI or M2P, or you mean not changed the layout between them? I tend to disagree with your "there is no standard", every place i have searched for sensors they are pin1 from left to right and not from right to left as on OPI and M2P.

[tkaiser]

GC2035 FF/Xulong is working, same comments as for Oranges

 

Thx for the great insights. I just tried it out with BPi M2+ (PCB rev. 1.0!) and Xunlong's GC2035 module (directly connected) as can be seen on the image:

 

I adopted fex settings and copied the csi0 section over from Orange Pi PC. But all I get is an error message:

(I did exactly the same on even the same install running on an Orange Pi PC and there it works flawlessly). Support info including fex contents and dmesg output available at http://sprunge.us/OCNM

 

Any ideas? Is the camera supposed to work on a PCB rev 1.0 or would I need 1.1?

[tkaiser]

Maybe I missed it but did anybody already try out NanoPi M1 with camera? They're speaking about 'DVP Camera Interface: 24pin, 0.5mm pitch FPC seat' and show also the pinout in their wiki.

[@lex]

@tkaiser,

 

I received rev 1.1 from @lvmc, that i think they fixed the resistors.

About the M1, i have tried without success but i will check again with the OV5640, i think you should not connect GC2035 directly to the DVP connector because they have an extension with possibly some conversion.

 

Speaking about the 40 pin camera connector, this is for the M3, i have recently learned that it could be a parallel to CSI bridge conversion.

 

 

[@lex]

Sorry, I think i spoke too early about the camera connector on M64, looking the M64 picture closely,  seems it will need FPC cable and probably an extension / connector?

[@lex]

update on OV5640.

 

The driver has been improved to run with all available win size and more than decent quality.

320x240 (30 fps),640x480 (30 fps),800x600 (30 fps),1024x768 (7.5 fps),1280x720 (~20 fps),1280x960 (~10 fps),1600x1200(~7 fps),1920x1080(~4 fps),2048x1536( ~4 fps)

 

Now focus on v4l2 compatibility.

1.move R6 to R5 on cam500 pcb (so making VDDIO 3v, not 1.8V)

2. enable for a while twi2 and check addr 0x3c with i2ctool (in my case works only with VDDIO=3V)

3. edit in script vip_dev0_mname gc2035->ov5640

4. modprobe ov5640, modprobe vfe_v4l2

and something like fswebcam -p YUV420P 111.jpg
 

it seems it works!  (somehow

Dear @lex,

 

If you need BPI M2+ and M3 samples as well as OV5640 and dual OV5640_8865 camera samples, I'll be glad to provide above models with you ASAP.

@Nora Lee, thank you so much for supporting our effort!

 

We are actively working to solve all issues with GC2035 and OV5640 and as soon we finish software stuff, the code will be available for Armbian community.

 

The Armbian project has been doing and incredible job for community and TRUE collaboration is the way to go!

[lvmc]

I finished all tests on hardware level and it's confirmed that both GC2035 and OV5640 are now fully working!

 

@lex has been doing an incredible job on Linux drivers, now focusing on frame grabbing compatibility.

@tkaiser,

 

Thank you for the info. Went unnoticed, will try and correct my info next weekend.

[JulesThuillier]

Hello everyone !

 

I am currently trying to connect an OV5640 to my Orange Pi PC Plus without success.

I have reversed the connector on the expansion board like so :  

 

 

I am running the legacy version not the dev one, last updated about 10 days ago.

 

I was wondering if the changes to use the 0V5640 have been pushed ?
Also what is the procedure to use it ? 

So far I have been using :

modprobe ov5640

modprobe vfe_v4l2

 

and then tried either fswebcam or qv4l2 without success (device not found).

But there is a problem with the reversed connector as it causes the expansion board to heat up.
I might have fried the sensor some times ago, but I am posting here to get the right procedure before frying another one.

 

BTW, if I can make the OV5640 sensor work on the Orange Pi PC I'll make an expansion board with the good wiring and I'll make all the prod files available

 

Cheers !

Ok, thanks to @lvmc we fixed this ! Here is how :

 

apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev 
git clone https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools
cd sunxi-tools
make

==> NOTE : Here I had an error finding libusb, so I udpated the file fec.c

 

nano fec.c

And replaced

 

#include <libusb/libusb.h>

 

with

 

#include "/usr/include/libusb-1.0/libusb.h"

 

 

==> END NOTE

 

Keep a backup :

sudo mv /boot/script.bin /boot/script.bin.old

Run :

./bin2fex /boot/script.bin.old script.fex

Edit the file script.fex

nano script.fex

Look for this line (Ctrl+W to search in nano) :

vip_dev0_mname  = "gc2035"

And replace it with :

vip_dev0_mname = "ov5640"

Now save and create the bin from the fex :

./fex2bin script.fex script.bin
sudo mv script.bin /boot/script.bin
sudo chmod 777 /boot/script.bin

reboot, and you're good to go ! 

 

Uses @lex fswebcam :

modprobe ov5640
modprobe v4l2_vfe
fswebcam --Hflip 1 -r 640x480 -p YUV420P - > cam640x480_1.jpg

Do you have to reverse the cable?

Hi,

 

Not if you use the version HDF5640-YC02-V1.0 F S (a mentioned above by @lvmc in post 67), with the expansion board of course

Just in case it's not known already. FriendlyARM is preparing an OV5640 module for NanoPi M1 and Air.

@lex, @JulesThuillier and @lvmc (me, yeah) worked so hard last 2 weeks to solve most issues on OV5640. It is fully functional now and I will push the Armbian patches today or tomorrow.
