>tl;dr: many OEM vendors are moving toward creating "dumber" cameras, with the hardware just exporting a raw data stream and all the image processing logic is done in software. weird, I understood it the total opposite - with vendors shipping more and more sophisticated solutions with embedded dedicated processors doing everything inside a black box (IPU6). You dont get ANY access to raw data stream, and no access at all if you cant talk to those black boxes.
