Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Orbbec Persee N1 and who is it for?

The Persee N1 is a camera-computer kit aimed at 3D vision enthusiasts and NVIDIA Jetson platform developers. It combines an industry-proven stereo vision 3D camera with a purpose-built computer based on the NVIDIA Jetson platform, along with industry-standard interfaces for accessories and data connections. Developers benefit from the Ubuntu OS and OpenCV libraries, and it is easy to set up with the Orbbec SDK for indoor and semi-outdoor operation.

What camera and processor does the Persee N1 use?

The Persee N1 integrates Orbbec’s industry-proven Gemini 2 camera, which is based on active stereo IR technology and uses Orbbec’s custom ASIC for high-quality in-camera depth processing. The computer is built on the NVIDIA Jetson Nano with a quad-core ARM A57 running at 1.43 GHz, providing a high-performance GPU for edge AI and robotics. It ships with 4GB of RAM and 16GB of storage with an expansion slot.

What depth performance does the Persee N1 provide?

The Persee N1 outputs high-quality depth data from 0.15 to 10m, with a precision of 2% or better at 2m. The RGB-D camera offers a depth field of view of up to 101 degrees and accurate depth measurement up to 10m without blind spots. Depth resolution reaches up to 1280×800 at 30fps and RGB up to 1920×1080 at 30fps.

What ports and expansion options does the Persee N1 offer?

The Persee N1 provides two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, a USB Type-C port (device mode only), Gigabit Ethernet with PoE, HDMI, and DisplayPort. Storage can be expanded through MicroSD and M.2 slots. Power is supplied via DC 12V/3A or PoE, which allows combined data and power over a single Ethernet cable.

What operating system and software does the Persee N1 run?
