[PATCH 0/2] media: Add Himax HM1092 mono NIR sensor driver

From: Ramshouriesh R

Date: Wed Jul 01 2026 - 04:55:55 EST


This adds a V4L2 subdev driver and DT binding for the Himax HM1092, a
1 megapixel monochrome near-infrared image sensor. On laptops it sits
behind the IR camera used for face unlock. It speaks a single MIPI CSI-2
data lane and outputs 10-bit RAW at 560x360.

The driver exposes that one native mode, a test pattern control and the
standard fwnode properties (orientation, rotation). It has been tested on
real hardware (an ASUS Zenbook A14): the sensor probes, streams, and the
on-chip test pattern comes through the full CSI-2 pipeline.

The sensor driver and its binding are SoC-neutral, so they are sent on
their own through the media tree. The board-level device tree and PHY
work that wires this camera up on the ASUS Zenbook A14 will be sent as
its own series.
