The primary development combinations are:
| Raspberry Pi | Camera |
|---|---|
| Raspberry Pi 4, 2 GB RAM | Arducam IMX519 |
| Raspberry Pi 4, 2 GB RAM | Arducam Hawkeye |
Before a new OpenScan3 release, real tests are made with this setup.
Raspberry Pi 3. Reportedly works with Arducam IMX519.
Raspberry Pi 5. Reportedly works with Arducam IMX519, use CAM0 slot.
| Camera | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Manual camera trigger via GPIO | Out of the box | Trigger arbitrary cameras offering shutter control. See Camera via External Trigger. |
| GPhoto2 cameras | Fine tuning required | Camera-specific profiles and settings may need to be added or adjusted. See Add a GPhoto2 Camera Profile. |
| LinuxPy/V4L2 cameras (e.g. Webcam) | Fine tuning required | Generic capture is available, but camera controls, autofocus, cropping, and RAW support vary by device. See LinuxPy Camera Controller. |
| Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 | Experimental | Starts and takes pictures. Requires validation of the Picamera2/libcamera configuration and camera behavior. |
Status definitions:
- Out of the box: included in the supported OpenScan3 hardware path and usable without firmware changes.
- Fine tuning required: the generic integration exists, but camera-specific profiles, controls, or configuration are likely needed.
- Experimental: an integration or platform path exists, and some features work, but the complete setup still needs testing on the target hardware.
