Chapter 9

1. The global memory for the GPU device on Jetson TX1 is around 4 GB with a GPU clock speed of around 1 GHz. This clock speed is slower than Geforce 940 GPU used earlier in this book. The memory clock speed is only 13 MHz compared to 2.505 GHz on Geforce 940, which makes Jetson TX1 slower. The L2 cache is 256 KB compared to 1 MB on Geforce 940. Most of the other properties are similar to GeForce 940.
2. True
3. In the latest Jetpack, OpenCV is not compiled with CUDA support nor does it have GStreamer support, which is needed for accessing the camera from the code. So, it is a good idea to remove OpenCV installation that comes with Jetpack and compile the new version of OpenCV with CUGA and GStreamer support.
4. False. OpenCV can capture video from both USB and CSI camera connected to Jetson TX1 board.
5. True. CSI camera is more close to hardware so frames are read quickly than USB...
