IMX219 USB Camera Jetcam doesn't initialise

  1. Where did you get the camera module(s)?
    Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Arducam-Autofocus-Microphones-Computer-Raspberry/dp/B09BR1RNSN

  2. Model number of the product(s)?

  3. What hardware/platform were you working on?
    JetsonNano 4GB developer kit

  4. Instructions you have followed. (link/manual/etc.)
    Getting Started with AI Hello Camera

  5. Problems you were having?
    JetCam cannot initialise the camera. I have tried following a number of forum threads and I am under the impression that the configuration I am providing is incorrect and Jetcams USB_Camera doesn’t work with it.
    RuntimeError: Could not initialize camera · Issue #12 · NVIDIA-AI-IOT/jetcam · GitHub

I can operate the camera and take pictures using other methods, but as a beginner would really like to go straight with the Jetcam library for familiarisation.

  1. The dmesg log from your hardware?

  2. Troubleshooting attempts you’ve made?
    Several forum threads, changing the resolution/frame rate.

  3. What help do you need?
    Understanding what needs to be done to initialise through Jetcam. For a plug and play camera this has been a week+ of debugging and no luck.
