Hi all

I have a question for using monochrome camera.

My customer are planning to use i.MX6Dual or DualLite and monochrome camera of MT9V024 series.

"MT9V024 series Datasheet"

file:///C:/Users/110719/Downloads/MT9V024_Flyer.pdf

In Reference manual, i.MX6's parallel interface supports Gray Scale. This means we can use monochrome camera. Is it correct?

If yes, please tell me how to connect it to i.MX6 and the notes of using a monochrome camera.

Also does Linux driver support a monochrome camera?

Please tell me.

Best Regards,

Igor

Thank you!

I understood that we can use monochrome camera and need BSP customization.
