ModeratorQ:
Can this stereo camera hat work with two your 8MP spy cameras?
A:
No, Arducam spy camera cannot work with the synchronized camera HAT as it is hard for us to synchronize the clock of two single spy cameras.

I am trying to use the AuduCam Stereo Camera HAT with OpenCV but it keeps giving me this error “Load libarducam_mipicamera fail.”
I think that I am missing this link. I fallowed the instructions here
But with one difference I am using OpenCV 4.1.0 does that make a difference? How do I fix this issue?
A:
Please install Arducam library for MIPI cameras from Github:

ParticipantHello,
I have two questions:
1. Can I change the camera module on the stereo board? For example the IMX219 autofocus camera or the IMX219 Low distortion camera drop-in replacements. If so can the the autofocus cameras be synchronized?
2. Is it possible to use the multi camera adapter board along with the stereo camera HAT? For example Camera A may be connected to a separate camera and Camera B will be connected to stereo HAT and give access to synchronized stereo cameras?
