5.4 Running the Demo

The demonstration showcases the process of receiving MIPI Rx data from a 4K camera. The frames are stored in the DDR memory and then transmitted to the DisplayPort output, as per the display controller's timing parameters. An image processing pipeline, including Bayer interpolation, Gamma correction and Image enhancement IPs, is used to enhance the raw images from the camera. The demo uses automatic camera exposure control, based on the lighting conditions.

Once the board is powered on and connections are configured, the live video feed from the camera is displayed on the connected DisplayPort monitor, as shown in the following figure.
