Agree with alliedvision,alvium-csi2 and thanks for your suggestion.
In my opinion we don’t need names for 1500c and 
others because the same driver can drive all the alvium models.
Alvium is taking care of different sensor abstractions.

I test with this driver with the following models:

 - 1800 C-1240c
 - 1800 C-040c
 - 1500 C-500

What do you think about?

Thanks,
Tommaso
