DFI is a global provider of high-performance computing technologies for embedded and industrial applications. Its industrial-grade platforms are designed to deliver high reliability, long product life cycles, and continuous operation across markets including industrial automation, transportation, medical, energy, and other mission-critical environments.
As part of this partnership, TechNexion integrates its GMSL2 camera technology with the DFI X6-ORN-GMSL, enabling a streamlined embedded vision solution for robotics, autonomous systems, industrial inspection, and edge AI deployments.
DFI X6-ORN-GMSL
The DFI X6-ORN-GMSL is a compact, fanless edge AI system powered by NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ Nano or Orin™ NX. It features two built-in GMSL2 FAKRA camera inputs, supporting one 4K camera stream at 30 fps or two 1080p camera streams at 60 fps.
With multiple I/O interfaces and a wide 9–36V DC input range, the system supports flexible integration and reliable deployment in industrial and robotic environments.
TechNexion Cameras on X6-ORN-GMSL
TechNexion’s GMSL2 cameras connect directly to the two integrated FAKRA ports on the DFI X6-ORN-GMSL, eliminating the need for an external adapter. A single coaxial cable carries video, control, and power over distances of up to 15 meters, simplifying system integration.
Our GMSL2 camera lineup ranges from 1MP to 20MP, with global and rolling shutter options in various form factors. With support for synchronized multi-camera capture, it is well suited for robotics, machine vision, and industrial inspection applications.
Step-by-Step Integration
TechNexion provides a detailed step-by-step developer guide for integrating GMSL2 cameras with the DFI X6-ORN-GMSL. The guide includes instructions for hardware setup, software and driver installation, camera detection, and video streaming using VizionViewer™ and GStreamer.
