3 Upgrade Jetson system
This section describes how to upgrade the Jetson system to support MV camera module. For OS update method, please refer to Update Jetson OS.
Specially, for MV series camera, besides adding the camera driver in Linux system, we also add a kernel patch - veye_mv_l4t_<version>.patch. We provide compiled Image files.
This patch has two features：
- Added support for both Y10 and Y12 data formats for Mono cameras.
- Added support for trigger mode.
4 Description of raw data image format
On TX2 and XAVIER, 10 bit depth and 12 bit depth raw data is stored in memory in a format that is not compliant with the V4L2 standard. We have extended the definition in the linux kernel to support this case.
TY10, TY12, XY10 and XY12 are the new types we have added.
4.1 Nano
| Depth | Bit order | FourCC | Enumerator |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 | GREY | V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY |
| 10 | 0 0 0 0 0 0 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 | 'Y10 ' | V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y10 |
| 12 | 0 0 0 0 B11 B10 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 | 'Y12 ' | V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y12 |
4.2 TX2
| Depth | Bit order (X is undefined) | FourCC | Enumerator |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 | GREY | V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY |
| 10 | 0 0 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 X X X X | TY10 | V4L2_PIX_FMT_TX2_Y10 |
| 12 | 0 0 B11 B10 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 X X | TY12 | V4L2_PIX_FMT_TX2_Y12 |
4.3 XAVIER and Orin
| Depth | Bit order (X is undefined) | FourCC | Enumerator |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 | GREY | V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY |
| 10 | 0 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 X X X X X | XY10 | V4L2_PIX_FMT_XAVIER_Y10 |
| 12 | 0 B11 B10 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 X X X | XY12 | V4L2_PIX_FMT_XAVIER_Y12 |
Also, we provide tool software in order to convert these special data formats to standard formats: https://github.com/veyeimaging/pixel_layer_convert.
We recommend using vooya as the player.
4.4 Support for trigger mode
The default driver for Jetson systems only supports video streaming mode. In its VI driver, the data reception function has a timeout mechanism. We have added a settable vi_time_out_disable option to dynamically turn this timeout mechanism on and off.
Refer to the following application example for specific applications.
5 Check system status
After system update, reboot the Jetson board.
During the Jetson system boot process, it detects the presence of cameras on all i2c buses and generates the /dev/videoX device node if it exists.
Execute the following command on the Jetson board to check if the camera is properly connected.
dmesg | grep mvcam
You can see the camera model and the camera version number probed.
A prompt as below indicates that the MV-MIPI-IMX178M camera is detected on the i2c-10 bus.
mvcam 10-003b: camera is: MV-MIPI-IMX178M
mvcam 10-003b: firmware version: 0x1080103
5.1 /dev/videoX node
The camera module is mapped as /dev/videoX device node in the Jetson system.
During the OS boot process, the cameras are detected in the order of the i2c bus. The X value is incremented from 0 according to the logical order of detection.
For instance, if only one camera is connected, X is 0 regardless of the location to which the hardware is connected. If 5 cameras are connected, X is [0-4] according to i2c bus from smallest to largest.
The v4l2-ctl command uses -d /dev/videoX to access different cameras.
In gstreamer, v4l2src can access different cameras by specifying device=/dev/videoX.

Parameters can be set and get using the following methods.
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl [ctrl_type]=[val]
v4l2-ctl --get-ctrl [ctrl_type]
All the above functions can be implemented using mv_mipi_i2c.sh.
None of the above parameters can be modified in the state when the image acquisition is started.
Each of them is described below:
7.2.3 Trigger Mode
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl trigger_mode=[0-2]
0：Video streaming mode
1：Normal trigger mode.
2：High-speed continuous trigger mode.
7.2.4 Trigger Source
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl trigger_src=[0-1]
0: Software trigger mode.
1: Hardware trigger mode.
7.2.5 Software trigger command
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl soft_trgone=1
7.2.6 Set frame rate
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl frame_rate=[1-max]
The maximum frame rate is automatically updated as the resolution changed.
7.2.7 Set ROI and pixel format
For example:
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl roi_x=0
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl roi_y=0
v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-video=width=$WIDTH,height=$HEIGHT,pixelformat=GREY
The maximum frame rate will be adjusted automatically after setting ROI. Please note that the camera ROI parameters need to comply with the requirements in the camera manual.
7.2.8 preferred_stride
The preferred_stride refers to the memory size required for one line of image data. Image data for the Jetson platform is stored unpacked, i.e., one pixel occupies two bytes in the 10-bit depth and 12-bit depth data formats.
- In the normal case, the buffer needs to be 64 bytes aligned.
preferred_stride= ALIGN_UP（width*bytes_per_pixel,64）
For instance, if the width is 3088:
8bit depth，preferred_stride=3136;
10bit depth，preferred_stride=6208;
12bit depth，preferred_stride=6208;
- If VIC buffer is used, 256 bytes alignment is required.
preferred_stride= ALIGN_UP（width*bytes_per_pixel,256）
7.3 Video Streaming mode
7.3.1 Set ROI and format
Take set ROI to sensor size as an example.
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl roi_x=0
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl roi_y=0
v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-video=width=$WIDTH,height=$HEIGHT,pixelformat=GREY
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl frame_rate=$FPS
7.3.2 Frame rate statistics
In streaming mode, the following commands can be used for frame rate statistics.
v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-video=width=$WIDTH,height=$HEIGHT,pixelformat=GREY --stream-mmap --stream-count=-1 --stream-to=/dev/null

7.3.4.3 Preview UYVY format images using gstreamer
Note: To increase the maximum frame rate and bandwidth, some modules no longer support the UYVY format. Please use the "fmtcap" command in the script to read the registers to confirm the specific configuration.
The camera can be previewed in real time using the following command:
export DISPLAY=:0
- MV-MIPI-IMX178M
v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-fmt-video=width=2816,height=2064,pixelformat=UYVY
gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! "video/x-raw,format=(string)UYVY, width=(int)2816, height=(int)2064, framerate=(fraction)22/1" ! nvvidconv ! "video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),format=(string)I420" ! nv3dsink sync=false
The maximum width supported by UYVY mode is 2880.

7.4.2.3 Perform soft trigger operation
In other shell terminals, you can execute the following command multiple times for multiple triggers.
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl soft_trgone=1
7.4.2.4 Stop triggering and capturing
Since the kernel driver is waiting for new images, you need to cancel vi_time_out_disable before exiting the acquisition operation.
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl vi_time_out_disable=0
In the terminal of the acquisition command, press Ctrl+C to exit the acquisition operation.
7.4.3 Hardware trigger mode
To use jetson-gpio for trigger operation, please install and configure jetson-gpio first.
The following is an example of using jetson GPIO40 (Board number) as the trigger source and rising edge triggering.
You can use the mv_mipi_i2c.sh script to set other trigger parameters.
7.4.3.1 Hardware Connection
- Using ADP-MV1
- Using ADP-N4
If a common trigger source connection is used, J7 is first shorted in pairs, and then connect the jetson GPIO40 to J19-1.
If the independent trigger source connection is used, the GPIO40 is directly connected to J7-1 ---- J7-11.
7.4.3.2 Set mode
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl trigger_mode=1
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl trigger_src=1
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl vi_time_out_disable=1
7.4.3.3 Start acquisition

v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-video=width=1280,height=1024,pixelformat=GREY --stream-mmap --stream-count=-1 --stream-to=y8-1280x1024.raw
7.4.3.4 Perform hardware trigger operation
python gpio_trigger_jetson.py
Note: script link.
7.4.3.5 Stop triggering and capturing
Since the kernel driver is waiting for new images, you need to cancel vi_time_out_disable before exiting the acquisition operation.
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl vi_time_out_disable=0
In the terminal of the acquisition command, press Ctrl+C to exit the acquisition operation.
