Windows Installation 

 
Download and install the Windows version of the Spinnaker SDK here.  

 

https://www.flir.com/products/spinnaker-sdk/

 

 
The  Spinnaker  SDK  also  comes  with  a  software  application  called  SpinView  which  will 

display real time images from the Boson Camera.

Figure 2: The FLIR ADK with the GMSL configuration. 

 

The FLIR ADK with the GMSL connector allows for the longer cable lengths that are necessary 
in  the  automotive  environment.  The  Serializer  in  the  ADK  can  be  configured  for  GMSL  1 

(trailing part number AA1) and for GMSL 2 (trailing part number AA2). Note that Serializers 

configured for GMSL 1 can be field upgraded to GMSL 2. 
  

In this document we provide examples of how to collect data from the GMSL ADK as well as 

read and write I2C commands to the ADK. We have a driver for the Nvidia Drive system and 

we show an example of using the Maxim MAX9296A_CSI_EVKIT to control the ADK. Note that 
at the time of writing this GMSL 2 is still Maxim proprietary information, thus it is necessary 

to contact Maxim directly to get documentation about the SerDes chips.
