IMX6QuadPlus GPU to IPU

juanschenini — Mon, 05 Mar 2018 14:03:28 GMT

I'm working on a project that uses the #i.mx6 gpu (#imx6 opengl to convert the #bayer image from a CMOS camera to RGB in #IMX6QuadPlus. I'm planning to use the GPU output as an IPU input. In order to do this I'm trying to use #VirtualFrameBuffers but I get the following error:

fbset -fb /dev/fb2 -g 1280 720 1280 720 32 -t 13468 220 110 20 5 40 5 -rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,8/24

What am I doing wrong here?

Is there an example of GPU to IPU communication?

Hi Juan

one can look at community efforts

GitHub - scottellis/bayer2rgb: Use OpenCV to convert a raw bayer image from a sensor to rgb

performance - OpenCL bayer to rgb slower than CPU version - Stack Overflow

and sect.7.3.15 Video conversion attached Linux Guide

Best regards

Hi Igor,

What I want to do is process with the GPU, convert from Bayer format to RGB, and then leave it in memory to be processed by the IPU. In similar forum posts and in the example of imx-gpu-sdk-2.3.2/DemoApps/GLES2/DeBayer use OpenGL to do this conversion, but display it on screen or use vpu.

What I want is to create a virtual frame buffer so that I can access the GPU output from the IPU, is that correct?

Are there any examples of this?
