NXS Documentation

Documentation for the Aliensense NXS sensor platform: the NXS sensor co-processor module and the NXS Hub camera interface. The set covers quick starts, datasheets, product specifications, and the released integration documents, and is published from the firmware repository at every release.

New to NXS? Start with Getting Started — install the host tool and make first contact with a unit in three commands. The first hour with the hardware is the guide set: from a fresh Jetson to a dual camera, seven chapters, one path each.

Aliensense NXS — board, top and bottom

The NXS sensor co-processor connects mikroBUS Click sensors and MIPI cameras to a host over GMSL coax or CAN-FD. Patches are uploaded at runtime and measurements arrive in SI units, self-described on the wire. See the product description for the details.

NXS Hub — mechanical envelope

The NXS Hub bridges two GMSL camera inputs into a host-friendly MIPI CSI-2 environment — deserialization, power management, control, and protection in one module. See the Hub overview for the details.

Aliensense builds sensing infrastructure for robotics. The NXS platform moves the sensor-integration work — hardware interface, driver layer, data transport — onto the module itself, so sensors and cameras placed anywhere on a machine arrive at the compute node as decoded SI-unit data. This documentation set is published from the firmware repository at each release and matches the firmware it ships with.
