Raspberry pi global shutter camera not being recognized J401

Hi - I have a seeed studio J401 carrier board and Orin NX 8GB. I have JP6.0 installed on it and uname -r says 5.15.136-tegra

I have a Raspberry Pi Global Shutter camera (Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera - PiShop.us) with a CSI ribbon cable plugged in. I’m having trouble getting the device to be recognized and need some advice on what to try.

I tried systemctl status nvargus-daemon and got this:

nvidia@orin-desktop:~/Desktop$ systemctl status nvargus-daemon

When I try v4l2-ctl --list-devices I see this:

nvidia@orin-desktop:~/Desktop$ v4l2-ctl --list-devices
NVIDIA Tegra Video Input Device (platform:tegra-camrtc-ca):
	/dev/media0

Cannot open device /dev/video0, exiting.

I suspect the driver for this camera isn’t installed but would appreciate a pointer in the right direction to resolve this issue. thanks in advance!

Hi,

According to the link you provided, you are using a camera based on IMX296 sensor. But the J401 carrier board only supports IMX219 and IMX477, as mentioned here:

Just curios, if IMX296 is needed what can be done? Thanks!
