I have OV7251 image sensor. Resolution 640x480 @100fps. It also has an IR filter that allows the image sensor to only see IR light between 850nm and 940nm.
I am able to initialize the camera correctly and get RAW10 data on the MIPI data and clock pins.
When i stream the video using ecam, I am able to see the images, but they have a green overlay.
I have used CyU3PMipicsiGetErrors() to check for MIPI errors. I get: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Does this mean i have a problem with the MIPI configuration on the CX3 or is there any other thing that can cause this?
I have attached my Sensor configurations and the video with green overlay.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello,
The UVC host applications (Like E-cam) cannot stream the RAW 10 data. You need a custom application for this.
Please refer the following KBA Streaming RAW10 Format Input Data to 16/24-bit Output Format in CX3 MIPI CSI-2 - KBA224387 .

Hi
Thanks for the quick response.
I have implemented the 16-bit output data format (CY_U3P_CSI_DF_YUV422_8_2)
I used the following settings:
a. Width in pixel : 640
b. Height in pixel : 300
c. Bits per pixel : 16
d. Frames per second : 100
e. Frame size : 640 x 300 x 16 bits
f. Bit rate : 640 x 300 x 16 x 100 bits per second
Here are the MIPI settings
/* OV7251_RAW10_Vga : */
CyU3PMipicsiCfg_t OV7251_RAW10_Vga =
{
CY_U3P_CSI_DF_YUV422_8_2 , /* CyU3PMipicsiDataFormat_t dataFormat */
1, /* uint8_t numDataLanes */
2, /* uint8_t pllPrd */
79, /* uint16_t pllFbd */
CY_U3P_CSI_PLL_FRS_500_1000M, /* CyU3PMipicsiPllClkFrs_t pllFrs */
CY_U3P_CSI_PLL_CLK_DIV_8, /* CyU3PMipicsiPllClkDiv_t csiRxClkDiv */
CY_U3P_CSI_PLL_CLK_DIV_8, /* CyU3PMipicsiPllClkDiv_t parClkDiv */
0, /* uint16_t mClkCtl */
CY_U3P_CSI_PLL_CLK_DIV_2, /* CyU3PMipicsiPllClkDiv_t mClkRefDiv */
640, /* uint16_t hResolution */
80 /* uint16_t fifoDelay */
};
Here is my UVC descriptor settings
/* GUID, globally unique identifier used to identify streaming-encoding format*/
0x59, 0x55, 0x59, 0x32, /*MEDIASUBTYPE_YUY2 GUID: 32595559-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71 */

0x01, /* Frame interval type : No of discrete intervals */
0x9f,0x86,0x01,0x00, /* Frame interval 3: Same as Default frame interval */
Here are the UVC probe settings
/* UVC Probe Control Setting - Vga*/
uint8_t const glVgaProbeCtrl[CX3_UVC_MAX_PROBE_SETTING] = {
0x00, 0x00, /* bmHint : No fixed parameters */

0x00 /* Maximum payload format version */
#endif
};
When i stream the video on ecam, The window size changes to 640x300 as specified in the UVC descriptor, but the video is green and completely distorted (has vertical green lines)
I have a feeling that the UVC and probe settings i am using are not correct. Is that the case?
The image of how the video appears is attached here

I also tried width in pixel as 480 and height in pixel as 400 and still get the same issue

When leave the mipi data format as CY_U3P_CSI_DF_RAW10 and do not make any changes to the UVCdscr.c file generated by the cx3Config, the video on ecam appears as shown in the images i have attached here.

Timothy,
Since you are streaming RAW video, the host application decoding it as per YUY2 format. Hence you see the green color in the image.
You need to customize your host application as per video format.

Thanks Kandlaguntar
Do you have any suggestion of host application that supports Raw10 streaming, or i have to do the customization myself

You need to customize it. Use OpenCV to do the same.
