[Spark] Hisilicon HI3516C Development Board / Car DVR

Project Description: This project utilizes the
Hisilicon HI3516CV500 development board/dashcam/electron microscope, equipped with a MIPI display and an IMX327 camera. It employs Linux + QT/LVGL + MPP libraries to implement video capture and display, video encoding and storage, and a GUI display. The
 
open-source
software and hardware are licensed under GPL 3.0.
 
Project Functionality:
The Hisilicon HI3516CV500 development board/dashcam/electron microscope is a development board used for learning Linux development and Hisilicon audio/video codecs. Based on this hardware, a dashcam/electron microscope demo software is implemented, implementing video capture and display, video encoding and storage, and a UI interface.
 
Project Attributes:
This is the first public release of this project, and it is the author's original work. This project has not won any awards in other competitions.

New Software Progress:
    1. Implemented a dashcam demo case based on LVGL GUI, realizing video preview, video encoding and storage, menu settings, etc.
    2. Improved supporting SDK functions
        : ① Supporting uboot/kernel: Added RTL8189FTV WIFI module driver, GT911 touch driver, FT5x06 touch driver
        ② Added supporting eMMC Uboot table, added supporting device tree (SD card, eMMC, PHY Ethernet driver function adaptation).
        ③ Supporting MPP libraries: Adapting to sensor drivers, video encoding (VENC), video input/output (VIO), RTSP streaming, HIFB (Linux FB), and other examples.
        ④ Porting third-party libraries: Adding dhcpcd, ssh, and qt libraries and their compilation and packaging.
        ⑤ Porting LVGL GUI: Implementing a dashcam demo case based on LVGL GUI.

Software description:
1. Supporting uboot, kernel, and rootfs: https://gitlab.com/linux-kodo/hi3516cv500-kodo/osdrv.git
Compilation:
① mkdir HI3615CV500/
② cd HI3615CV500/
③ git clone https://gitlab.com/linux-kodo/hi3516cv500-kodo/osdrv.git
④ cd osdrv/
④
After compiling `./build-ddr3-emmc.sh` (for EMMC hardware) , the uboot, kernel, and rootfs images are located in the `pub/hi3516cv500_emmc_smp_image_glibc` directory (for EMMC hardware)
 
. 2. Accompanying MPP examples and third-party open-source libraries: https://gitlab.com/linux-kodo/hi3516cv500-kodo/smp.git
① `cd HI3615CV500/
` ② `git clone https ://gitlab.com/linux-kodo/hi3516cv500-
 
kodo/smp.git` Compiling third-party libraries (dhcpcd, ssh, qt) and MPP examples:
① `cd smp/a7_linux/package`
② `./package-build.sh`
 
Compiling the LVGL GUI project:
① `cd smp/a7_linux/APP/CardvUI/source/Cardv/`
② `make -j32` ③ One-click packaging with the
make install script: ① cd smp/a7_linux/ ② ./rootfs-cv500.sh After executing the packaging script, a rootfs.tar.gz compressed package will be generated in the smp/a7_linux/rootfs/ directory. This package contains MPP libraries, third-party libraries, LVGL GUI files, etc. Deployment: Use NFS or an SD card to copy the rootfs/ directory after unzipping rootfs.tar.gz to the root directory of the development board. cp rootfs/* / -rf After restarting the machine, the dashcam APP will run automatically. Physical demonstration design notes: This section explains some precautions that need to be taken into account during the production of the work (optional).
