CM4 Sensing

# Downloads

There should be an eMMC on the CM4 Sensing, the difference is just the eMMC size. And the eMMC is pre-installed 32-bit Raspberry Desktop OS with our BSP installed. Customers can just use it out of box and don't have to download a OS image and flash the eMMC. If customers want to reset to the factory settings, customers could get the latest images and reflash the eMMC.

Once you have downloaded the image file, please refer to section: eMMC Flashing to flash the eMMC.

# Raspberry Pi OS Image with BSP Installed

This system image is based on the origin Raspberry Pi OS and pre-installed our BSP package by apt-get and with SSH server service enabled. Customers can just flash it to eMMC and no longer need to install BSP again. It' convenient.
