How to get IR camera to work on Linux?












0














I have an ASUS Q524UQK laptop with integrated Realtek IR camera and it doesn't work on Linux Ubuntu 16.04.5. I was looking on net for drivers but found nothing. lsusb and lspci outputs doesn't show this camera, only simple one:

Bus 001 Device 005: ID 8087:0a2b Intel Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 03eb:8ab3 Atmel Corp.
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04f2:b59c Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd

02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 (rev 3a)


Note the moment that 04f2:b59c is simple camera (not IR) and it works properly. I just have suspicious that it's a 2-in-1 module, because they have similar (not exactly this because of sequence of parts in module) products. Lookup on their website: http://www.chicony.com.tw/products_detail.php?id=QCUlXiQjMTExQCUlXiQj



Also, I have Windows driver, maybe I can adapt it for Linux somehow?

    The 04f2:b59c device is your camera. It seems that if you fire up software that uses it, it will work automagically. Please define "does not work"

    @Rui 04f2:b59c is simple camera and it works properly. Another one, IR cam doesn't work at all, I can't get image from it. There are only video0 at /dev/, while others' has /dev/video1 for IR cams. In Windows 10 everything works good.
