Laid the groundwork to understand Nvidia TX2 ISP and integrated first sensor driver in the organization leveraging the ISP features. This led to the launch of e-CAM21_CUTX2, e-con's first product in partnership with Nvidia.Contributed to tuning the ISP for achieving best imaging performance using Image Quality Analysis tools such as imatest.Created a functional prototype with 10 MIPI CSI2 cameras running concurrently on the Xilinx FPGA Kit utilizing Vivado and reVISION stack to create new PL design including various IPs.Added support for the Intel Realsense R200 in Ubuntu before Linux was officially supported. This required decoding the USB descriptor, modifications at the kernel UVC driver and application level, and analyzing the output image data.
