What is the correct settings in rkipc.ini for MIS5001 camera not to get overexposed images outdoors when it is bright conditions?

Hello, this problem occurs because the ambient light intensity is too high and the shutter speed cannot keep up, and modifying the rkipc.ini cannot solve the problem. You can refer to some methods on drone cameras to add ND filters to the lens

Hello,

I took a look as MIS5001 driver source, there are some suspicious places which I would like to clarify for myself. For that technical datasheet of MIS5001 sensor is needed. Where could I get technical datasheet of MIS5001 sensor? In Chinese is fine too.

All the currently publicly available data of the camera is here. May I ask what other information you need on your side?

I would like to get a technical datasheet for the MIS5001 image sensor. Technical datasheet contains all the information that is necessary to write or improve camera driver in Linux, specifies what addresses accepts what values, how sensor behaves etc.

We managed to get quick and dirty workaround in driver code - now camera shows something usable also during sunny with auto exposure mode, but it is at the expense of dark / night time. Technical datasheet of MIS5001 would allow to squeeze out all the performance Waveshare camera with that sensor can provide.

We are unable to provide this with TRM documentation of the Sensor's registers and configuration details that our vendor has not disclosed to us. At the same time, the automatic exposure function has been enabled in the default ISP, and your needs need to readjust the 3A algorithm, which requires a dedicated ISP engineer and supporting software, and we do not have Rockchip's authorization on the ISP calibration software
