It is expected to work across all the NVIDIA Jetson hardware lineup including latest and legacy.

## What is NVIDIA Jetson?

NVIDIA Jetson is a series of embedded computing boards designed to bring accelerated AI (artificial intelligence) computing to edge devices. These compact and powerful devices are built around NVIDIA's GPU architecture and are capable of running complex AI algorithms and [deep learning](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/deep-learning-dl) models directly on the device, without needing to rely on [cloud computing](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/cloud-computing) resources. Jetson boards are often used in robotics, autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, and other applications where AI inference needs to be performed locally with low latency and high efficiency. Additionally, these boards are based on the ARM64 architecture and runs on lower power compared to traditional GPU computing devices.

## NVIDIA Jetson Series Comparison

[Jetson Orin](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-systems/jetson-orin/) is the latest iteration of the NVIDIA Jetson family based on NVIDIA Ampere architecture which brings drastically improved AI performance when compared to the previous generations. Below table compared few of the Jetson devices in the ecosystem.

For a more detailed comparison table, please visit the **Technical Specifications** section of [official NVIDIA Jetson page](https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/jetson-modules).

## What is NVIDIA JetPack?

[NVIDIA JetPack SDK](https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/jetpack) powering the Jetson modules is the most comprehensive solution and provides full development environment for building end-to-end accelerated AI applications and shortens time to market. JetPack includes Jetson Linux with bootloader, Linux kernel, Ubuntu desktop environment, and a complete set of libraries for acceleration of GPU computing, multimedia, graphics, and [computer vision](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/computer-vision-cv). It also includes samples, documentation, and developer tools for both host computer and developer kit, and supports higher level SDKs such as DeepStream for streaming video analytics, Isaac for robotics, and Riva for conversational AI.

## Flash JetPack to NVIDIA Jetson

The first step after getting your hands on an NVIDIA Jetson device is to flash NVIDIA JetPack to the device. There are several different way of flashing NVIDIA Jetson devices.

1. If you own an official NVIDIA Development Kit such as the Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit, you can [download an image and prepare an SD card with JetPack for booting the device](https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/learn/get-started-jetson-orin-nano-devkit).
2. If you own any other NVIDIA Development Kit, you can [flash JetPack to the device using SDK Manager](https://docs.nvidia.com/sdk-manager/install-with-sdkm-jetson/index.html).
3. If you own a Seeed Studio reComputer J4012 device, you can [flash JetPack to the included SSD](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/reComputer_J4012_Flash_Jetpack/) and if you own a Seeed Studio reComputer J1020 v2 device, you can [flash JetPack to the eMMC/ SSD](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/reComputer_J2021_J202_Flash_Jetpack/).
4. If you own any other third party device powered by the NVIDIA Jetson module, it is recommended to follow [command-line flashing](https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/archives/r35.5.0/DeveloperGuide/IN/QuickStart.html).

!!! note

    For methods 3 and 4 above, after flashing the system and booting the device, please enter "sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack -y" on the device terminal to install all the remaining JetPack components needed.

## JetPack Support Based on Jetson Device

The below table highlights NVIDIA JetPack versions supported by different NVIDIA Jetson devices.

|                   | JetPack 4 | JetPack 5 | JetPack 6 |

| Jetson AGX Xavier | ✅        | ✅        | ❌        |
| Jetson AGX Orin   | ❌        | ✅        | ✅        |
| Jetson Orin NX    | ❌        | ✅        | ✅        |
| Jetson Orin Nano  | ❌        | ✅        | ✅        |

## Quick Start with Docker

The fastest way to get started with Ultralytics YOLO11 on NVIDIA Jetson is to run with pre-built docker images for Jetson. Refer to the table above and choose the JetPack version according to the Jetson device you own.

=== "JetPack 4"

    ```bash
    t=ultralytics/ultralytics:latest-jetson-jetpack4
    sudo docker pull $t && sudo docker run -it --ipc=host --runtime=nvidia $t
    ```

=== "JetPack 5"

    ```bash
    t=ultralytics/ultralytics:latest-jetson-jetpack5
    sudo docker pull $t && sudo docker run -it --ipc=host --runtime=nvidia $t
    ```

=== "JetPack 6"

    ```bash
    t=ultralytics/ultralytics:latest-jetson-jetpack6
    sudo docker pull $t && sudo docker run -it --ipc=host --runtime=nvidia $t
    ```

After this is done, skip to [Use TensorRT on NVIDIA Jetson section](#use-tensorrt-on-nvidia-jetson).

## Start with Native Installation

For a native installation without Docker, please refer to the steps below.

### Run on JetPack 6.x

#### Install Ultralytics Package

Here we will install Ultralytics package on the Jetson with optional dependencies so that we can export the [PyTorch](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/pytorch) models to other different formats. We will mainly focus on [NVIDIA TensorRT exports](../integrations/tensorrt.md) because TensorRT will make sure we can get the maximum performance out of the Jetson devices.

1. Update packages list, install pip and upgrade to latest

    ```bash
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install python3-pip -y
    pip install -U pip
    ```

2. Install `ultralytics` pip package with optional dependencies

    ```bash
    pip install ultralytics[export]
    ```

3. Reboot the device

    ```bash
    sudo reboot
    ```

#### Install PyTorch and Torchvision

The above ultralytics installation will install Torch and Torchvision. However, these 2 packages installed via pip are not compatible to run on Jetson platform which is based on ARM64 architecture. Therefore, we need to manually install pre-built PyTorch pip wheel and compile/ install Torchvision from source.

Install `torch 2.3.0` and `torchvision 0.18` according to JP6.0

```bash
sudo apt-get install libopenmpi-dev libopenblas-base libomp-dev -y
pip install https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/releases/download/v0.0.0/torch-2.3.0-cp310-cp310-linux_aarch64.whl
pip install https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/releases/download/v0.0.0/torchvision-0.18.0a0+6043bc2-cp310-cp310-linux_aarch64.whl
```

Visit the [PyTorch for Jetson page](https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/pytorch-for-jetson/72048) to access all different versions of PyTorch for different JetPack versions. For a more detailed list on the PyTorch, Torchvision compatibility, visit the [PyTorch and Torchvision compatibility page](https://github.com/pytorch/vision).

#### Install `onnxruntime-gpu`

The [onnxruntime-gpu](https://pypi.org/project/onnxruntime-gpu/) package hosted in PyPI does not have `aarch64` binaries for the Jetson. So we need to manually install this package. This package is needed for some of the exports.

All different `onnxruntime-gpu` packages corresponding to different JetPack and Python versions are listed [here](https://elinux.org/Jetson_Zoo#ONNX_Runtime). However, here we will download and install `onnxruntime-gpu 1.18.0` with `Python3.10` support.

```bash
wget https://nvidia.box.com/shared/static/48dtuob7meiw6ebgfsfqakc9vse62sg4.whl -O onnxruntime_gpu-1.18.0-cp310-cp310-linux_aarch64.whl
pip install onnxruntime_gpu-1.18.0-cp310-cp310-linux_aarch64.whl
```

!!! note

    `onnxruntime-gpu` will automatically revert back the numpy version to latest. So we need to reinstall numpy to `1.23.5` to fix an issue by executing:

    `pip install numpy==1.23.5`

### Run on JetPack 5.x

#### Install Ultralytics Package

Here we will install Ultralytics package on the Jetson with optional dependencies so that we can export the PyTorch models to other different formats. We will mainly focus on [NVIDIA TensorRT exports](../integrations/tensorrt.md) because TensorRT will make sure we can get the maximum performance out of the Jetson devices.

1. Update packages list, install pip and upgrade to latest

    ```bash
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install python3-pip -y
    pip install -U pip
    ```

2. Install `ultralytics` pip package with optional dependencies

    ```bash
    pip install ultralytics[export]
    ```

3. Reboot the device

    ```bash
    sudo reboot
    ```

#### Install PyTorch and Torchvision

The above ultralytics installation will install Torch and Torchvision. However, these 2 packages installed via pip are not compatible to run on Jetson platform which is based on ARM64 architecture. Therefore, we need to manually install pre-built PyTorch pip wheel and compile/ install Torchvision from source.

1. Uninstall currently installed PyTorch and Torchvision

    ```bash
    pip uninstall torch torchvision
    ```

2. Install PyTorch 2.1.0 according to JP5.1.3

    ```bash
    sudo apt-get install -y libopenblas-base libopenmpi-dev
    wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist/jp/v512/pytorch/torch-2.1.0a0+41361538.nv23.06-cp38-cp38-linux_aarch64.whl -O torch-2.1.0a0+41361538.nv23.06-cp38-cp38-linux_aarch64.whl
    pip install torch-2.1.0a0+41361538.nv23.06-cp38-cp38-linux_aarch64.whl
    ```

3. Install Torchvision v0.16.2 according to PyTorch v2.1.0

    ```bash
    sudo apt install -y libjpeg-dev zlib1g-dev
    git clone https://github.com/pytorch/vision torchvision
    cd torchvision
    git checkout v0.16.2
    python3 setup.py install --user
    ```

Visit the [PyTorch for Jetson page](https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/pytorch-for-jetson/72048) to access all different versions of PyTorch for different JetPack versions. For a more detailed list on the PyTorch, Torchvision compatibility, visit the [PyTorch and Torchvision compatibility page](https://github.com/pytorch/vision).

#### Install `onnxruntime-gpu`

The [onnxruntime-gpu](https://pypi.org/project/onnxruntime-gpu/) package hosted in PyPI does not have `aarch64` binaries for the Jetson. So we need to manually install this package. This package is needed for some of the exports.

All different `onnxruntime-gpu` packages corresponding to different JetPack and Python versions are listed [here](https://elinux.org/Jetson_Zoo#ONNX_Runtime). However, here we will download and install `onnxruntime-gpu 1.17.0` with `Python3.8` support.

```bash
wget https://nvidia.box.com/shared/static/zostg6agm00fb6t5uisw51qi6kpcuwzd.whl -O onnxruntime_gpu-1.17.0-cp38-cp38-linux_aarch64.whl
pip install onnxruntime_gpu-1.17.0-cp38-cp38-linux_aarch64.whl
```

!!! note

    `onnxruntime-gpu` will automatically revert back the numpy version to latest. So we need to reinstall numpy to `1.23.5` to fix an issue by executing:

    `pip install numpy==1.23.5`

## Use TensorRT on NVIDIA Jetson

Out of all the model export formats supported by Ultralytics, TensorRT delivers the best inference performance when working with NVIDIA Jetson devices and our recommendation is to use TensorRT with Jetson. We also have a detailed document on TensorRT [here](../integrations/tensorrt.md).

### Convert Model to TensorRT and Run Inference

The YOLO11n model in PyTorch format is converted to TensorRT to run inference with the exported model.

!!! example

    === "Python"

        ```python
        from ultralytics import YOLO

        # Load a YOLO11n PyTorch model
        model = YOLO("yolo11n.pt")

        # Export the model to TensorRT
        model.export(format="engine")  # creates 'yolo11n.engine'

        # Load the exported TensorRT model
        trt_model = YOLO("yolo11n.engine")

        # Run inference
        results = trt_model("https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg")
        ```

    === "CLI"

        ```bash
        # Export a YOLO11n PyTorch model to TensorRT format
        yolo export model=yolo11n.pt format=engine  # creates 'yolo11n.engine'

        # Run inference with the exported model
        yolo predict model=yolo11n.engine source='https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg'
        ```

### Use NVIDIA Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA)

[NVIDIA Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA)](https://developer.nvidia.com/deep-learning-accelerator) is a specialized hardware component built into NVIDIA Jetson devices that optimizes deep learning inference for energy efficiency and performance. By offloading tasks from the GPU (freeing it up for more intensive processes), DLA enables models to run with lower power consumption while maintaining high throughput, ideal for embedded systems and real-time AI applications.

The following Jetson devices are equipped with DLA hardware:

- Jetson Orin NX 16GB
- Jetson AGX Orin Series
- Jetson AGX Xavier Series
- Jetson Xavier NX Series

!!! example

    === "Python"

        ```python
        from ultralytics import YOLO

        # Load a YOLO11n PyTorch model
        model = YOLO("yolo11n.pt")

        # Export the model to TensorRT with DLA enabled (only works with FP16 or INT8)
        model.export(format="engine", device="dla:0", half=True)  # dla:0 or dla:1 corresponds to the DLA cores

        # Load the exported TensorRT model
        trt_model = YOLO("yolo11n.engine")

        # Run inference
        results = trt_model("https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg")
        ```

    === "CLI"

        ```bash
        # Export a YOLO11n PyTorch model to TensorRT format with DLA enabled (only works with FP16 or INT8)
        yolo export model=yolo11n.pt format=engine device="dla:0" half=True  # dla:0 or dla:1 corresponds to the DLA cores

        # Run inference with the exported model on the DLA
        yolo predict model=yolo11n.engine source='https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg'
        ```

## NVIDIA Jetson Orin YOLO11 Benchmarks

YOLO11 benchmarks were run by the Ultralytics team on 10 different model formats measuring speed and [accuracy](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/accuracy): PyTorch, TorchScript, ONNX, OpenVINO, TensorRT, TF SavedModel, TF GraphDef, TF Lite, PaddlePaddle, NCNN. Benchmarks were run on Seeed Studio reComputer J4012 powered by Jetson Orin NX 16GB device at FP32 [precision](https://www.ultralytics.com/glossary/precision) with default input image size of 640.

### Comparison Chart

Even though all model exports are working with NVIDIA Jetson, we have only included **PyTorch, TorchScript, TensorRT** for the comparison chart below because, they make use of the GPU on the Jetson and are guaranteed to produce the best results. All the other exports only utilize the CPU and the performance is not as good as the above three. You can find benchmarks for all exports in the section after this chart.

## Reproduce Our Results

To reproduce the above Ultralytics benchmarks on all export [formats](../modes/export.md) run this code:

!!! example

    === "Python"

        ```python
        from ultralytics import YOLO

        # Load a YOLO11n PyTorch model
        model = YOLO("yolo11n.pt")

        # Benchmark YOLO11n speed and accuracy on the COCO8 dataset for all all export formats
        results = model.benchmarks(data="coco8.yaml", imgsz=640)
        ```

    === "CLI"

        ```bash
        # Benchmark YOLO11n speed and accuracy on the COCO8 dataset for all all export formats
        yolo benchmark model=yolo11n.pt data=coco8.yaml imgsz=640
        ```

    Note that benchmarking results might vary based on the exact hardware and software configuration of a system, as well as the current workload of the system at the time the benchmarks are run. For the most reliable results use a dataset with a large number of images, i.e. `data='coco8.yaml' (4 val images), or `data='coco.yaml'` (5000 val images).

## Best Practices when using NVIDIA Jetson

When using NVIDIA Jetson, there are a couple of best practices to follow in order to enable maximum performance on the NVIDIA Jetson running YOLO11.

1. Enable MAX Power Mode

    Enabling MAX Power Mode on the Jetson will make sure all CPU, GPU cores are turned on.

    ```bash
    sudo nvpmodel -m 0
    ```

2. Enable Jetson Clocks
