ZED X and Zed Box mini questions

Software ROS2
1

Hi, I have a couple of questions related to Zed X and Zed box mini

  1. Can I use a 16V power supply to power the Zed box mini, or does it have to be 12V?

  2. Why does the Zed X image look more grainy compared to Zed 2i in similar enviroments?

Thanks!

Hi @hey_you

As reported in the ZED Box Mini datasheet, you must use an input source in the range:
10.5V to 13.5V - 60W max

Please add pictures to compare the images and understand more. Please note that they do not have the same type of sensor.

Hi, thanks for the info, I will update the images as soon as I can.
I have a question, why does the zed box need a HDMI plug? I have a jetson orin NX dev kit and it can run ZED SDK with ZED 2i without any plug throught SSH and SSH -X works with ZED_Explorer and ros2 launch both.
Is this related to ZED BOX, ZED SDK or Nvidia?

Thanks!

Even after turning off area memory, for some reason the memory is continuously growing slowly but steadily, any thoughts on that?

Thanks!

Please do not ever post off-topic questions.
This is an issue we discussed in another thread, and I’ve already said that it will be fixed in one of the next releases of the ZED SDK.
