@note SW Release Applicability: This tutorial is applicable to modules in both **NVIDIA DriveWorks** and **NVIDIA DRIVE Software** releases.

As mentioned in the @ref camera_mainsection section, DriveWorks users
may interface with GMSL cameras that are enabled through NvMedia's SIPL framework.

@section sensorplugins_camerasipl_nvmedia Custom Camera Integration into SIPL

For details on integrating your custom camera into SIPL, please see
"Understanding NvMedia SIPL Framework" in the _NVIDIA DRIVE 5.1 PDK Development Guide_.

@section sensorplugins_camerasipl_dw Using Custom Cameras with DriveWorks

Once `libnvsipl_devblk.so` and `libnvsipl_query.so` are updated on the target
device, the user may interface with custom camera sensors using DriveWorks.

The user can either:
1. Use the newly-added `CAMERA_NAME` when performing DeviceBlock initialization.
2. Use Platform initialization with a new platform config.

For more details on how to use SIPL-enabled cameras with DriveWorks,
see @ref camera_mainsection_gmsl_cameras "GMSL Cameras using SIPL".
