Try To work Global Shutter IMX296 with Jetson Orin Nano

Robotics & Edge Computing Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson Orin Nano

I have try

$ v4l2-ctl --list-deivces
NVIDIA Tegra Video Input Device (platform:tegra-camrtc-ca):
        /dev/media0

Cannot open device /dev/video0, exiting.

$ ls /dev/video*
ls: cannot access '/dev/video*': No such file or directory

It seem like there is no IMX296 driver?

Hello @saran.deeluea,

What do you get if you run dmesg | grep imx ?

It might be that the Jetson is loading another driver, sometimes it loads IMX219 or IMX477 by default.

If that is the case, you can use the Jetson IO Tool to check if there is a driver available and try to enable it.

If that does not work, then there are a couple of posibilities:

  1. The driver exists but is not built into your image.
  2. The driver is being built, but the DTB does not have a module to load the driver and there is no DTB Overlay for the IO tool to detect it.
  3. There is really no driver for that sensor the moment on Jetpack.

Please let us know if that helps.

Also, don’t hesitate to reach out if you require further assistance. We would love to help!

I got this from dmesg | grep imx

[   10.359949] imx219 9-0010: tegracam sensor driver:imx219_v2.0.6
[   10.371064] imx219 9-0010: imx219_board_setup: error during i2c read probe (-121)
[   10.376283] imx219 9-0010: board setup failed
[   10.376344] imx219: probe of 9-0010 failed with error -121

So this mean the jetson orin only have IMX219 driver ( and do i have to reinstall the driver because the error mesaage?) not IMX296

Hello @saran.deeluea,

Thanks for running the test!

Yup, looks like you have the imx219 driver loaded.

You don’t have to necessarily reinstall the driver at this point.

May I ask what Jetson platform are you using?

Try connect to another camera port to try or configure dual imx219 by jetson-io to try.
