## AI overview

This event recap examines proposed changes to Zephyr's camera and driver architecture for AI vision workloads. It discusses metadata attached to video buffers, per-buffer callbacks, zero-copy sharing, bounded latency, backpressure, and streaming coordination. The proposals remain under exploration through prototypes and community discussions.

## Source excerpt

The Zephyr community came together at Open Source Summit India 2026 in Mumbai to share knowledge and explore developments, tooling, and real-world applications across embedded systems. In this second post event blog, we recap two lightning talks from the Zephyr track focused on camera support.
