Would you have an advise > on which device I can best use to test ? You will need a development board with an OMAP4 SoC, and a compatible camera module. I've used the PandaBoard ([1]) personally back when I worked on the driver, but I don't recall what camera module I was using. Looking at ancient git branches, it may have been based on an AR0330, possibly using a module from Leopard Imaging. This was nearly 10 years ago though, sourcing the hardware may be fairly difficult.
