IDS brings GMSL2 multi-camera evaluation to Jetson Orin NX
IDS Imaging Development Systems is offering its GMSL2 Discovery Kit on loan to companies evaluating embedded vision systems with several cameras. The kit combines camera modules with integrated image processing and an industrial embedded PC based on NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin NX.
The modules use onsemi AR0233 sensors to capture full HD video at 30 frames per second, with support for high dynamic range and LED flicker mitigation. IDS offers single-head and dual-head versions. The dual-head design can send data from multiple sensors over one GMSL link.
GMSL2 carries image data, control, synchronisation and power over the same cable. The PC has matching connectors, so cameras can be placed around a machine or vehicle and run in sync without a separate cable for each signal. IDS exposes the feeds through the Video for Linux 2 interface for applications using Python or OpenCV. Live images can also be streamed via RTSP.
The kit was first shown at VISION 2026 in Stuttgart. IDS says companies can request it now for evaluation, with technical support included.
