Is powerjoular able to count enery consumption for Jetson devices?

[korontanis]

Hello,

I recently ran a test on a Jetson Nano and got the response "Platform is not supported". Is there any chance that you will add Jetson devices to the supported ones?

Hi @korontanis, I haven't played with Jetson Nano yet, but it isn't based on Intel/AMD, hence no RAPL interface.
For ARM-based devices, we used our own empirical power models, which we built experimentally.

If you're aware of power models, or existing APIs to get CPU power consumption of these devices, we'd be happy to integrate into PowerJoular.

The only tool I’m aware of for measuring energy consumption on Jetson devices is jetson-stats, also known as jtop.

Thanks. I briefly checked their code and their power file. I think we can integrate something along those lines (by reading system files.
If anyone is interested in contributing a first working POC, that'll help us greatly to integrate it.
