So this is the nvidia Jetson TX1 development board that our robotics team received recently. Going to record my experiences with it. First things first: - I plugged in a keyboard and mouse (you'll need either a usb splitter or a wireless combo as there is only one usb port).
- HDMI for the monitor
- I chose to go with my Ethernet cable initially.
- Power - note there are four buttons on the top right of the picture. The button closest to the middle of the board is the power button.
- When you power on you get a series of 3 steps to type to get configured. I typed them in and then rebooted when told to. Then Ubuntu (a Linux operating system) came up - ubuntu is the default username and password.
- Right now, I'm exploring the default programs that are on the machine. I'm actually typing this on the nvidia!
