Hi kayccc,

Thanks for your response!

I have a DRIVE AGX Thor Developer Kit (940-63960-0013-000)
with pre-installed DRIVE OS 7.0.3.0-41012141. I didn’t find the
pre-built power measurement tool “tegra-power-sensing.linux”
on the Dev Kit mentioned in the document.

Meanwhile I have pulled the docker image “nvcr.io/drive/driveos-sdk/drive-agx-linux-nsr-aarch64-sdk-build-x86:7.0.3.0-0010” but there was no folder “drive-foundation/tools/power_measurement” available and there was no binary “tegra-power-sensing.linux” found either.

Thanks,
Jie

Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I will check internally and update you.

Hi SivaRamaKrishnaNV,

Thanks so much for your help!

I was wondering if there would be any updates available at this time.

Thanks!

I see it is not available in 7.0.3 release. May I know if it blocks your development?

Hi SivaRamaKrishnaNV,

Yes, we want the power measurement tool to help profiling power consumption while inference is running.

Thanks,
Jie
