it's not open source
Doesn't that depend whether the code reuses licensed open source code that obliges them to make it available (e.g. GPL variants)? If they are obliged by the licensing, but don't, then this can be brought to their attention so they can do the right thing. Under certain circumstances they can be impelled to do so. Its been a while now since I was more familiar with this area, but I believe there are asked of companies that have open sourced code, they initially preferred not to.Source code belongs to the chipset manufacturer, I suspect they won't ever open source it

Have a look at this for something very close to 0906 sdk: http://git.p-mc.eu/Tobi/ntk_sdkHi,
Is the source code available for us to see? Is it open source or can it be made open source?
It would be really handy if we can make our own tweaks if we want to.
Thanks,
Mihir

And other Novatek cameras: http://git.p-mc.eu/ntk-leaks/
that's something you'd need to ask the chipset manufacturer
Manufacturer chipset (Novatek) provides you API to connect. You have you own UI built using that API or SDK.
chipset manufacturer supplies the SDK, from the purchase agreement we are not permitted to share it with others
No need to ask me, 0906 is not my product
Is that @Rayman.Chan ?0906 is by MEGtech
Thanks jokiin for your help..
Manufacturer chipset (Novatek) provides you API to connect. You have you own UI built using that API or SDK. So we are asking for you UI source code that you have written for mini 0906. The source code of the firmware.
@Rayman.Chan if you can shed any light on this please?
There is NDA of the SDKs from both Ambarella and Novatek. (not sure about other un-touched chipsets)
Even the UI API, that is also licensed for modification.
Although Novatek SDK is much more simple than Ambarella, it is still huge complex for a software engineer in different area.
