jetson-stats is a Python package for monitoring and controlling NVIDIA Jetson boards (Thor, Orin, Xavier, Nano, TX series). It provides jtop, an interactive terminal-based system monitor, plus an importable Python API for reading CPU, GPU, memory, fan, and power stats.

Use cases

• monitor cpu and gpu usage on a jetson nano
• view jetson board stats in the terminal like htop
• read tegra stats from a python script
• control fan speed and nvp model on jetson orin
• check jetpack and l4t version on a jetson board
• run jetson monitoring inside a docker container
• track memory and engine usage on jetson xavier

When to choose

• you develop or deploy on NVIDIA Jetson hardware and need hardware-level telemetry
• you want a htop-like interactive monitor tailored to Jetson GPUs and engines
• you need programmatic access to Jetson stats from Python without root

When to avoid

• you need monitoring on non-Jetson hardware or generic Linux servers
• you need a long-term metrics dashboard rather than live monitoring (consider a Grafana-based stack)
• your platform is macOS, Windows, or non-Tegra ARM boards
