IMX298 Overlays

Raspberry Pi Cameras mipi-camera-modules

Hello,

I purchased a IMX298 and am attempting to build a photobooth with it. I would like to overlay some countdown text on the preview before the image is captured.

I see that the official raspberry pi camera module provides this api feature: https://picamera.readthedocs.io/en/release-1.10/recipes1.html#overlaying-images-on-the-preview

I’m not seeing this functionality available for the arducam. Am I missing it? or is there a simple way to accomplish this?

Thanks,

~Corbin

Hi,

At present, arducam camera driver does supports this function.

Great! Can you point me to where I can find any documentation on the overlay feature?

Hello,

I am very sorry we missed your question. arducamstill does not support this function.
