How do I connect Tracking Camera to Voxl 2?
-
I've just purchased my very first Voxl 2 and Tracking Camera. I'm trying to connect the Tracking Camera to the J7 port on the Voxl 2 board, but the connectors don't seem to match. The product page doesn't mention a need for any additional connectors. Am I able to just connect the Tracking Camera into the port or will I need an additional connector. If it's the former, how do I connect it since the documentation isn't very clear? If it's the latter, what additional connector will I need to purchase? I'm attaching a picture of the Tracking Camera connector and the pins on the Voxl 2 that I'm trying to connect it to. Additionally, the pins seem to be a bit bent. Is this going to be an issue?

@Maanav-Iyengar you need an Image sensor interposer to connect the Camera sensor to the VOXL2 board.

@Jetson-Nano Thanks, sounds good! I'll purchase one right away. Do the pins on my Voxl 2 board look okay because they appear bent?

@Jetson-Nano I'm also planning on purchasing a hi-res camera for my Voxl 2. Can one VOXL 2 Dual Image Sensor Expander act as an interposer for both my tracking camera and the hi-res camera?

@Maanav-Iyengar The J7 PORT pins appear bent for some reason. J6 appears fine.

@Maanav-Iyengar Yes, one dual image interposer should support for a Tracking and Hi-res sensors
