Hardware requierments

Hello,

Actually, I am discovering the jetson TX2 developer kit, and I need to follow the guide “two days a demo”.

I have been already installed the last Jetpack version with SDK manager products.
The using of SDK manager requires 8GB of RAM. To follow the guide “two days a demo”, is there hardware requierments ? Because I can install ubuntu in dualboot, but my computer has only 6GB of ram.

Thank you,
Nolann.

Hi,

There are two parts in ‘Two Days to a Demo’: training and inferencing.

If you only use the inferencing part, which is mainly applied on the Jetson, there is no extra hardware requirement for your desktop.
But a desktop GPU is essential to apply the training job, which is mainly for desktop environment.

Thanks.

Hello,

thank you for your answer.

I will have to develop code to capture an image from camera, and the camera uses ethernet connexion. Can I work directly from the jetson ? Or is it more confortable to work from a host computer ? Could please indicate the more convenient tools.

Thank you very much for your help !
Nolann.

Hi,

Usually, we remote access Jetson with ssh for developing.

Thanks.
