42 //! JeVois gadget driver - exposes a uvcvideo interface to host computer connected over USB
43 /*! Gadget is a user-space interface to the Linux kernel's gadget driver implemented by JeVois. A USB gadget driver is
44 a USB driver that runs on a device, as opposed to a USB driver that runs on a host computer. Gadget drivers
45 implement USB functions such as USB printers, USB modems, or USB cameras. In JeVois, the Gadget driver makes the
46 JeVois hardware platform appear as a UVC (USB Video Class) camera. Because UVC has been standardized, no special
47 driver is needed on the host computer to start using the UVC device, as virtually all modern operating systems
48 already provide a built-in driver for UVC-compliant cameras.
49
50 The internal operation of Gadget is quite complex, especially due to its tight interaction with the kernel-side
51 UVC gadget driver. Yet, for users, Gadget is just another VideoOutput device: One can set its format, obtain blank
52 image buffers from it using get(), paint results into those buffers, and send them to the host computer when
53 complete using send().
54
55 Gadget implements a zero-copy, zero-wait access to output video frames, that is:
56 - the pixel data of the image you obtain via get() is directly the memory-mapped pixel buffer that the silicon
57 hardware on the JeVois chip will use via direct-memory-access (DMA) to stream the data out over the USB link;
58 - as soon as you call send() that buffer will be queued for sending over USB (as opposed to having a fixed,
59 regular interval at which images may be streamed out). Gadget has several image buffers, allowing one to be
60 streamed out over USB while another is being handed over for filling by your application via get(). These
61 buffers are recycled, i.e., once send() is called, the underlying buffer is streamed over USB and then sent back
62 to the Gadget for future access by your code.
63
64 Most programmers will never use Gadget directly, instead using Engine and OutputFrame. \ingroup core */
