Описание

Lab BOM относится к текущему Jetson Orin Nano prototype. Он ставит model iteration, Linux camera debugging и video pipeline development выше стоимости, питания и weatherproofing.

Functionality covered

  • Локально запускает текущее приложение entrance-observer.
  • Захватывает USB UVC video и записывает selected clips.
  • Тестирует detection, tracking, direction counting и telemetry upload.
  • Тестирует on-demand video sessions через gate-video-stream.
  • Даёт benchmark data for production alternatives.

Tier Component Example part Qty Rough cost Existing note Lab recommendation
Required Edge AI computer NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit, 8 GB 1 $249 Orin Nano Оставить reference platform for model/API development.
Required Camera MOKOSE 4K USB UVC camera 1 $154.50 Camera Good lab choice: UVC работает с OpenCV, GStreamer и common Linux tools.
Required Lens 5-50 mm CS/C mount CCTV lens или camera bundled 6-12 mm lens 1 €43.35 Camera lens Использовать varifocal только пока unknown entrance FOV. Lock focus/zoom during tests.
Required Storage 250 GB M.2 NVMe SSD 1 €23.88 M2 SSD OS, Docker images, logs, clip buffers и benchmark videos.
Required Network Ethernet or Waveshare AC8265 WiFi module and antennas 1 €0-22.92 WiFi antennas Prefer Ethernet for repeatable tests; WiFi to reproduce field conditions.
Required Power Official-quality USB-C power supply for Jetson 1 not yet documented Add exact part Должен покрывать Jetson, camera, SSD и WiFi under load.
Required Camera mount Adjustable 1/4 inch camera wall mount 1 $9.59 Mounts Быстрая alignment; mark distance, height and angle after tests.
Recommended Temporary frame 2020 aluminium extrusion pack 1 pack €40.62 2020 Aluminum Extrusion Good for lab fixture, not field enclosure.
Recommended Optical cover sample Plexiglass/acrylic sheets 1 pack €8.32 Plexiglass Test glare, blur, scratches, condensation and cleaning; not production-grade by default.
Optional Local setup display 7 inch HDMI touchscreen 1 $47.99 Display Bench-only. Remove from field/production BOMs.
Optional Acrylic dev case Acrylic case originally noted for Jetson Nano 2 GB 1 €11.36 Case Treat as incompatible until Orin fit/cooling confirmed.

Component decisions for Phase 1

Decision Recommendation Why
Compute Keep Jetson Orin Nano as reference. Fastest route from Python model code to edge inference.
Camera interface Keep USB UVC in lab. Easy to inspect with v4l2-ctl, ffmpeg, GStreamer, OpenCV and browser previews.
Lens Use varifocal only for discovery. Lab discovers working distance and entrance coverage before fixed lens.
Storage Keep NVMe. Video datasets, Docker images and local buffers exceed small storage quickly.
Networking Test both Ethernet and WiFi. Ethernet isolates camera/model bugs; WiFi reveals retry/bandwidth behavior.
Enclosure Use fixture, not final enclosure. Desk fixture should make camera movement and cable access fast.
Power Add a real power meter to BOM. FPS/W and Wh/day cannot be estimated reliably from datasheets.

Missing lab items before next build

Missing item Why it is needed
USB-C inline power meter or AC wall power meter Required for FPS/W and energy benchmarks.
Known test video set or printed moving-target fixture Makes model changes comparable.
USB3 cable same length as planned field tests Long or poor cables can cause camera drops.
Lens lock or thread-locking method Prevents focus/zoom drift.
Small fan or thermal probe Helps detect thermal throttling.
Labels for distance, angle, lens setting and profile Makes datasets reproducible.
Alternative Why not default in lab When to revisit
Raspberry Pi 5 + Hailo AI HAT+ Requires model conversion and Hailo runtime before algorithm is stable. Phase 2 side-by-side benchmark or Phase 3 cost-down path.
RK3588 NPU board Tooling/model conversion less predictable than Jetson. If video encoding/media pipeline efficiency matters more.
Coral TPU Current YOLO-style detector may need major simplification. If very small telemetry-only model is trained.
Smart/IP camera with onboard AI Vendor lock-in and less model control. Long-term production research after count logic/dataset stabilize.

Estimated lab cost

Because current notes mix USD and EUR, keep totals as planning ranges:

  • Required documented USD items: $413.09 ($249.00 + $154.50 + $9.59).
  • Required documented EUR items: €90.15 (€43.35 + €23.88 + €22.92) before fixture/cover.
  • Recommended fixture/cover EUR items: €48.94 (€40.62 + €8.32).
  • Optional bench/debug items: $47.99 + €11.36.

At a rough 1:1 USD/EUR planning rate, current lab prototype is about €550-650 before shipping, taxes, power supply, cables, power meter and assembly time.

Exit criteria

  • All required parts documented with links or substitute rules.
  • Camera runs for several hours without USB resets.
  • Jetson processes reference clips at target FPS profile.
  • Telemetry and on-demand video can be demonstrated from same hardware.
  • Power and thermal measurements recorded so Phase 2 does not inherit unknown energy risk.
