Enabling OV5647 camera in IMX8MPLUS EVK with ISP support

[Namitha_zcs]

I am currently working on the i.MX8M Plus EVK using the Android BSP version Android 14.0.0_1.0.0 (L6.1.55_2.2.0 BSP). My objective is to interface the OV5647 camera sensor in place of the default OV5640.

I have made the necessary changes in the device tree to support OV5647; however, these modifications do not appear to take effect during testing. I came across a Yocto-based implementation that enables OV5647 ISP support on the i.MX8MP EVK:
https://github.com/rudislabs/meta-imx8mp-isp-ov5647.
Since my development environment is Android-based, I would appreciate guidance on the modifications required to enable OV5647 with ISP support under the Android BSP.

HI @Namitha_zcs!
Thank you for contacting NXP Support!

I recommend to use our patches instead.

Unfortunately we don't have any guide of how to integrate this cameras to Android Source, for your case I recommend to consult the Android Documentation  and try by your side, the camera driver can be tried in our Linux BSP.

Best Regards!
