Congratulations! Your SparkFun JetBot is now fully assembled!
4. Software Setup Guide from NVIDIA
Attention:
The SD card in this kit comes
pre-flashed
to work with our hardware and has the all the modules
installed (including the sample machine learning models needed for the collision avoidance and object
following examples). The only software procedures needed to get your JetBot running are steps 2-4 from the
Nvidia instructions (i.e. setup the WiFi connection and then connect to the JetBot using a browser). Please
DO NOT
format or flash a new image on the SD card; otherwise, you will need to flash our image back onto
the card (instructions below).
Your SparkFun JetBot comes with a
Pre-Flashed
micro SD card. Users only need to plug in the SD card and set
up the WiFi connection to get started.
The default password on everything (i.e. login/user, jupyter notebook, and superuser) is "
jetbot
".
We recommend that users change their passwords after initial setup. These are typically covered on the first
boot of your Jetson Nano as detailed in the NVIDIA Getting Started with Jetson Nano walkthrough
Software Setup
The only step needed to get your JetBot kit up and running is to log into the JetBot and setup your WiFi
connection. Once that is done, you are now ready to connect to the JetBot wirelessly. If you need instructions for
doing so, you can use the link below.
However, please take note of our instructions below. You will want to
skip steps 1 and 5
to avoid erasing the
image on the card or undoing the hardware configuration.
