# AI Camera Dev Kit

# NVIDIA® Jetson Nano™ based AI Vision Developer Kit

# Introduction

Designed to make Proof of Concept (PoC) easier, the ADLINK AI Camera Dev Kit integrates the NVIDIA® Jetson Nano™ SOC, an 8MP color MIPI camera module and validated software drivers to save effort on integration and solve compatibility issues. Users can immediately start development with the kit right out of the box. Built with the popular V4L2 video interface, users can easily leverage the included sample code or resources from NVIDIA’s technical forum to enhance the kit, allowing them to conveniently create a PoC with little effort.

For AI beginners or in-house system integrators, the pre-installed EVA software provides two AI applications with sample code for image capture, AI inference and logical control to develop a PoC or application quickly and easily. The EVA is a GUI-based development tool that provides a low-code environment with software tools for labeling and training, and two open source selected models so users can build a PoC without AI expertise.

DI/O, COM, and LAN ports make the ADLINK Vision Dev kit ideal for building an AI vision proof of concept quickly and easily.
