jetson-stats

jetson-stats monitors NVIDIA Jetson hardware and gives you control over its power and cooling settings. It runs locally on the board, with a terminal interface called jtop for people developing or running workloads on Jetson devices, including local AI applications.

The monitor shows CPU and GPU activity, memory use, hardware engines and fan status. That gives you a view of the board's resource use when assessing a workload or investigating performance. It also identifies the hardware architecture, L4T and NVIDIA JetPack environment, so you can check which platform you're working with.

Its controls cover fan speed, NVPModel power modes and jetson_clocks. These sit alongside monitoring in the same package, useful when you need to inspect resource use and adjust how the board runs.

You can use jtop as a standalone terminal application or access its data through a Python library in your own software. Docker support lets you use it in a container as well. The terminal application can run without superuser privileges.

Compatibility covers NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor, the Orin and Xavier families, Nano and TX devices, as well as Jetson TK1. The package works across NVIDIA JetPack versions. Written in Python and released under AGPL-3.0, it's open source.
