Camera datasheet v1.1 G840-00180-01 2 Autofocus interface The camera supports one-shot autofocus and continuous autofocus modes. The sysfs node for autofocus is at /sys/module/ov5645_camera_mipi_v2/parameters/ov5645_af. It reads back the decimal representation of the status register in the autofocus hardware, as shown in table 2. To change the autofocus mode, write one of the values shown in table 3. Table 2. Autofocus read values from sysfs node Read value Description 0 (0x00) Autofocus is running.

Camera datasheet v1.1 G840-00180-01 4 Snapshot tool The Mendel system image for the Coral boards includes a Python program called snapshot that captures images from the Coral Camera. To start it using an interactive mode, run snapshot from the board's shell terminal. Then use the following keys to control the camera: ● Spacebar to snap a photo ● R to refocus ● Q to quit (or Control+C) When using this interactive mode, each time you press Spacebar, it saves the image to the current directory as a JPEG.
