Hi,
I’m currently working on a research project Using Jetson Nano and waveshare IMX219-83 stereo camera to collect depth map data for training a 3D image classification model.
I want to confirm whether Jetpack 6. or 5 supports this dual camera with proper stereo functionality
Problem I encountered, Orin Nano can detect the camera but when I tried nvgstcapture-1.0 it showed black screen. I tried asking Chat GPT. It said that I should downgrade to Jetpack 4. but Orin nano could only be downgraded to 5.
Is there any way to get the IMX219-83 stereo module working on JetPack 6 (or 5.1.5) with Orin Nano?
Can depth maps be generated using this setup (maybe with third-party stereo vision libraries if V4L2 works)?
I would greatly appreciate any guidance or success story from this forum. I will try all guidance and recommendations.
Thank you very much in advance for you help.
You should be able to use imx219 cameras on the latest jetpack.
You can verify by connecting the cameras, powering on the board and checking for the driver messages:
dmesg | grep imx
If you see the driver registering the devices successfully, you can verify that they show on:
ls /dev/video*
Now, there are multiple ways of getting a depth disparity map on NVIDIA Jetson, for instance, you can use NVIDIA VPI framework or you can even do it with OpenCV.
Please let us know if you run into any issues with the cameras or require further help, we would love to give you a hand.
