Connect the camera module (8-bit data interface) to STOUT (CN6: VIN0_camera I/F 34pin) and restart YOCTO.

After boot the following messages could be find:

Video can be captured with the tool avconv:

Example 1 (capture and store a MJPEG video):

avconv -f video4linux2 -pix_fmt yuv422p -s 1280x720 -r 25 -i /dev/video0 -c:v mjpeg result.mov

Example 2 (capture and stream as H264 or MPEG2 video):

avconv -f video4linux2 -pix_fmt yuv422p -s 1280x720 -r 25 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -f mpegts udp://192.168.0.16:6000
avconv -f video4linux2 -pix_fmt yuv422p -s 1280x720 -r 25 -i /dev/video0 -vcodec mpeg2video -r 25 -f rtp rtp://192.168.0.16:1234

Example 3 (capture one frame and store as picture):

./capture -d /dev/video0 -f -o -c 1 > video_1f.uyvy
convert -size 1280x720 -depth 16 -sampling-factor 4:2:2 ./Desktop/video_1f.uyvy ./Desktop/video_1f.png

Example 4

./capture -d /dev/video0 -f -o -c 10000 > file.img

On STOUT the nano WLAN module (EW-7811Un) with Chip Set Realtek RTL818x can be embedded.

The kernel has to be prepared for readyForModuleRTL8192CU.

Load the module wlan.ko and start the interface by
ins mod wlan.ko
ifconfig wlan0 up
</code> Where wlan0 is the name of your wireless device (this is most often the default). The above command will bring your wireless device up so it is ready to use. ifconfig shows your devices already:

wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 80:1F:02:F1:DF:A9  
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:2 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

The next phase is to scan for any wireless access points with the command
iwlist wlan0 scan
From the output of the scan you should see a line (or lines) like:

wlan0     Scan completed :
