## Description

Arducam for Jetson IMX477 HQ Camera Board, 12.3MP Camera for Nvidia Jetson Nano/Xavier NX: desertcart.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

Review: Paired with a Jetson Xavier and a NVMe SSD and after installing the correct driver, I could shoot very high bit rate h.265 4k30p video :)
Review: The 1920x1080@60fps mode doesn't work on certain Jetson models, but 4032x3040@30fps does.... took some back and forth with the Chinese to figure this out. Also, I can't seem to find any code samples, or instructions on how to get this working with opencv (a non-trivial task).

## Features

- A Can't-Miss Update to IMX219 - Much better picture quality and lens flexibility, thanks to 53% more pixels, 92% larger pixel size, 192% larger imaging area, and a CS-Mount. Maximum still resolution at 4056 × 3040.
- Accelerated by Jetson Hardware ISP Engine - Support NVIDIA Argus Camera plugin for H264 encoding, JPEG snapshots, as well as gain, exposure, framerate, and group, hold control.
- Plug-and-Play - You don’t need any hardware modification to work with jetson platform. Just a driver needed. More convenient than RPI official HQ cameras.
- 4-Lane Camera for the Future - Route out all 4 data lanes to the camera connector for customized carrier boards with 4-lane CSI connector and future 4-lane camera driver updates.
- Note：1. It can't work on the standard Raspberry Pi models (like Raspberry Pi 3/3B+/4) 2. This camera is compatible with Jetson Developer Kit, and it does not guarantee to support other third-party boards.

### ⭐ Review
*by B***H on 5 March 2022*

Does not work with my Jetson Nx unless I change 2 resistors on the board (per Arducam support). This is a documented issue with the dev kit, yet Arducam continues to FALSELY claim it works without modification on the Jetson Xavier Nx dev kit. You'll end up with the board failing to load drivers even though it's plugged in (and there's a /dev/video device). It's an I2C communication failure with the camera board.
