Xiaomi Yi 4K+ USB C Sync Cable for VR (genlock) build schema available? #57

Closed archenroot closed 6 years ago

archenroot commented 6 years ago

Hello,

I just received 2 4k+ camera versions which are upgraded to USB C type of cable connectivity. Could you publish the schema for genlock sync, I can build my own cable, but need build info.

I was also thinking about some converter back to usb micro: https://www.ebay.com/p/5-Pack-USB-3-1-Type-C-Male-to-Micro-USB-Female-Adapter-Converter-Connector-Usb-c/6005438152?iid=371772856612

Thanks a lot for any hints on this.

@chaohe1024 Thanks for quick answer :-)

In my scenario for stereo vision I will try to fallback to streaming 2 independent streams life via WiFi router to PC, I have enough CPU threads to assign each stream to 1 thread and leave sync to another independent thread. On top I would like to do some kind of processing via GPU (I have 2 independent 1080 TI cards) via OpenCV.

No the question is which firmware is best for my purpose: 1 - standard one (1.2.8) available via https://www.yitechnology.com/firmware/index/class/action 2 - VR firmware available via https://github.com/YITechnology/YIOpenAPI/tree/master/vr/bin

Maybe I don't need VR firmware as I will implement synchronization of images based on TIMESTAMP -> I will synchronize both cameras via NTP protocol.

I will definitelly apply little hacks to camera (get telnet, custom resolutions, etc.), but in general WHAT firmware is best.

Thanks for hints guys. Let explore full camera potential :-)

Closing this as nogo in the moment, will try to fix this on software level with NTP.
