-libcamera
-=========
-
-Cameras are complex devices that need heavy hardware image processing
-operations. Control of the processing is based on advanced algorithms that must
-run on a programmable processor. This has traditionally been implemented in a
-dedicated MCU in the camera, but in embedded devices algorithms have been moved
-to the main CPU to save cost. Blurring the boundary between camera devices and
-Linux often left the user with no other option than a vendor-specific
-closed-source solution.
-
-To address this problem the Linux media community has very recently started
-collaboration with the industry to develop a camera stack that will be
-open-source-friendly while still protecting vendor core IP. libcamera was born
-out of that collaboration and will offer modern camera support to Linux-based
-systems, including traditional Linux distributions, ChromeOS and Android.
