Sony PlayStation 4 Camera - Standard Edition

This repo above offers a zip download that is critical for this work. Download the files to a directory and plug in the PS4 camera. Ensure the USB port being used is a USB 3.0 one, you should see blue in the port as a general rule to know if it’s USB 3.0 and up.

You can keep an eye on the device manager going forward to see if these steps are working as expected.

• When you plug in the camera first, if the USB port is correct, then there should be a new entry under “Universal Serial Bus controllers” in the Device Manager.
• In the zip file you’ve downloaded, run the “InstallDriver.exe” file to get the camera recognised as an unknown USB BOOT device. This is because the camera doesn’t come with any plug and play firmware we would normally see in standard PC webcams.
• With this done, we now want to upload the firmware to the camera and we can do this running the “OrbisEyeCameraFirmwareLoader.exe” file
• The camera should now be available as a camera called “USB Camera-OV580”!
