AMScope camera compatible with raspberry PI?

[ThinkChip]

Hi I want to connect a AMSScope camera https://www.amazon.com/AmScope-MU300-Mi ... ra+amscope
say in the description that have the drivers for linux, so my questions is, I could connected to a raspberry pi, to have a hdmi output to my LCD 32", without need a PC Computer?

I have the AmScope MU1403 camera, and it does spot it as a device, but doesn't see it as a camera.

the dmesg command shows this:


[726785.843313] usb 1-1.5.2: new high-speed USB device number 9 using dwc_otg
[726785.974597] usb 1-1.5.2: New USB device found, idVendor=0547, idProduct=4b14

If you plug in a USB camera, I get the following:

Have you come any closer with this? I’m having the same problem ..

One of the Amazon reviews lists it as using custom software on all platforms.
They do provide software for the MU series under Linux at https://www.amscope.com/software-download, but it's precompiled binaries for x86 and x86_64, so no ARM support.
You could ask AmScope if they could support ARM platforms, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Thanks. I’ll check with AmScope- team.

As suspected. AmScope support's answer were "We are not able to do that.".
