Need help configuring the Jetson nano

Hi,
Our team (1690) is trying to use the jetson nano for vision this season for the first time and we are having trouble finding information on how to configure and use with network tables.
We tried to use this tutorial: Jetson/FRC Setup - eLinux.org
(it was the only full tutorial we found- from 2017 and probably outdated.)

When reaching step 5 in the tutorial, we tried to run: sudo make , and we had some errors that we couldn’t resolve.

We also tried to use an updated version of it from allwpilib, (https://github.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/tree/main/ntcore) but we have not found enough documentation about it.

Any help would be appreciated!

What programming language are you planning to use for vision? C++? Java? Python? The approach is different for each. We distribute Maven artifacts for aarch64-bionic (18.04) that should be usable for Java and C++, but for building using more traditional C++ tools (e.g. cmake) building it yourself using cmake is probably easier.

We are using Python for vision.

In that case you can use pip to install, see pynetworktables install — RobotPy 2021 documentation

Thanks for the quick response, we got the networktables working, but are now having problem installing cscore.
We saw that it doesn’t support opencv-python from pip and haven’t managed to make it work…

There appears to be an arm64 .deb package following the first link under robotpy-cscore install — RobotPy 2021 documentation ? If that doesn’t work, I can walk you through the manual compilation steps.
