This product is a GMSL-to-MIPI adapter kit specifically designed for the NVIDIA JETSON AGX ORIN development platform. It supports up to 8 channels of GMSL1/2 camera input and is expandable to 16 channels, fully addressing the needs of vision systems in applications such as autonomous driving, robotics, and intelligent manufacturing.

The kit features a modular daughterboard-motherboard design, offering flexible compatibility with various deserializer chips. For time synchronization, when paired with ALG proprietary Synchronization BOX, the kit enables microsecond-level external trigger precision, providing a robust foundation for high-accuracy visual perception and data processing.

ALG offers complete driver support for this kit on JETSON ORIN platforms. When used with ALG Lijian series automotive camera modules, no additional driver development is required. The driver framework supports the standard V4L2 protocol under Linux and is compatible with the latest JetPack releases.
