Basic camera usage
This page provides a basic overview on the fpc/ffc-connection over CSI to the Carrierboard and basic camera streaming
How to connect
Most of carrierboards are using a 22-Pin FPC/FFC connector. The images below are showing the camera connection for the Raspberry PI IMX219 camera on a JNX30 Carrierboard using a 15- to 22-Pin adapter .
In case your camera uses a different connector you may want to take a look at our shop for available camera adapters.
Camera Capture
The following gstreamer pipelines are optimized for the Raspberry PI IMX219 and might not work with a different camera. If you don't know what you are doing, you may speak to your camera supplier for more information
The parameter sensor-id=
describes the camera target. This id can be found by using ls /dev/
. If the camera correctly plugged in then there should be a device called /dev/videoX
, where X
is the camera id.
All pipelines listed below are using the NVIDIA accelerated Argus GStreamer-plugins to make use of the NVIDIA Jetson specific hardware components
Common properties

| Video device number |
| Requested video width |
| Requested video height |
| Video stream format, this value depends on the camera sensor that is used. You should contact your camera vendor for the value that should be used here |
| Defines captured frames for a given time frame (Example: 30/1 would be 30 frames each second -> frames/time) |
