## Summary

Aliensense has launched NXS, a compact plug-and-play sensor board aimed at robotics applications. Built around the STMicro STM32G491 Cortex-M4F MCU, it supports GMSL 2/3 for transmitting power, video, and sensor data over a single coax cable up to 15 meters (extendable to 40m via CAN-FD). The board features a MIPI CSI-2 camera interface with MAX96793 serializer, a mikroBUS expansion connector compatible with MikroElektronika's 2,000+ Click ecosystem boards, and supports ROS 2, OpenCyphal, and FRAMOS PixelMate C standards. It includes signed A/B firmware with watchdog rollback for recovery. The NXS 'Vanguard Edition' kit — including the board, a 6DOF IMU module, and cables — is available for pre-order at $199, with shipping starting August 20, 2026.
