TX2 Camera Compatibility

Hi,

My research group just purchased a Jetson TX2 to do some graphical processing and we are looking for a camera (CSI-2) to use with it. I did some looking and I saw several CSI-2 cameras that specifically stated they would work with a Jetson TX1, but none that specifically would work for the TX2. So, I was just wondering if the TX1 cameras (such as the e-CAM130_CUTK1 - 13MP) would work on the TX2 board. If not, do you have any suggestions for CSI-2 cameras?

Thanks!

Hi tbdavis,

Due to kernel version’s difference, those TX1 cameras can’t work with TX2 board directly.
I believe those camera partners are modifying those drivers, and should announce the support soon.
You could contact with them to get the suggestion also, please find information from below link:

Hey kayccc,

Thanks for the info! I was wondering if it was actually a hardware/software incompatibility or simply if the products descriptions hadn’t been updated yet.

Thanks again!
