My zed camera is detected on usb 2 only and I have installed zed sdk, if I’m opening zed_explorer, it is not not showing the camera, when I run diagnostic- no camera detected message.

Based on the provided context, I’ll try to help you troubleshoot the issue with your ZED stereo camera v1 on Jetson AGX Orin with JetPack 4.6.1 installed.

Camera Detection

Firstly, you’ve mentioned that the ZED camera is detected on USB 2 only, and you’ve installed the ZED SDK. The fact that the camera is detected on USB 2 suggests that the hardware connection is established, and the camera is recognized by the system.

However, when you run the ZED Explorer, it doesn’t show the camera, and the diagnostic tool reports “No camera detected.” This indicates that there might be an issue with the camera’s configuration or the SDK’s ability to communicate with the camera.

Comparison with See3CAM_CU130

In the provided context, there’s information about the See3CAM_CU130 camera, which is a USB 3.0 industrial camera validated on Jetson AGX Orin series under Jetson Linux. Although this camera is different from your ZED stereo camera, we can draw some parallels.

The See3CAM_CU130 camera uses the UVC (USB Video Class) protocol, which is a standard for USB video devices. The fact that your ZED camera is detected on USB 2 suggests that it might also be using the UVC protocol.

Possible Solutions

To resolve the issue, you can try the following:

  1. Verify the camera’s configuration: Ensure that the ZED camera is properly configured and calibrated. You can refer to the ZED SDK documentation for guidance on configuring the camera.
  2. Check the USB connection: Although the camera is detected on USB 2, try connecting it to a USB 3.0 port to see if that resolves the issue.
  3. Update the ZED SDK: Make sure you’re running the latest version of the ZED SDK. You can check the Stereolabs website for updates.
  4. Use the v4l2-ctl command: Run the v4l2-ctl --list-devices command to verify that the camera is recognized by the V4L2 (Video for Linux 2) subsystem. This can help you determine if the issue is related to the camera’s configuration or the SDK’s ability to communicate with the camera.
  5. Try a different camera capture tool: Instead of using the ZED Explorer, try using a different camera capture tool, such as gst-launch-1.0 with the nvarguscamerasrc plugin, to see if you can capture images from the camera.

By trying these solutions, you should be able to troubleshoot the issue and get your ZED stereo camera working on your Jetson AGX Orin with JetPack 4.6.1 installed.

Hi thanks for the reply

It is showing in v4l2-ctl and with the gst-launch-1.0 I’m able to get the image. But the problem exist in the zed sdk. If I go with gst-launch, will it work fine, I have tried in all ports. Still not getting detected in usb 3.0

Hi,
Since we don’t work on ZED SDK, would suggest contact with ZED to get suggestion.

The latest release for Orin is Jetpack 6.2.2 r36.5, which includes PSIRT fix. Would suggest upgrade to latest version instead of staying on previous version.
