How to fill kernel entropy without X and hardware RNG?

I have a tiny embedded device running Linux but with no hardware RNG driver and without X server (no mouse, no keyboard...).

/dev/random

blocks very quickly.

cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail

reports very low numbers (~10).

The system handles a camera so there is a real source of entropy. How can I input entropy into the kernel?
