As usual, you have three options here. Click the “Deploy with balena” button or use the balena CLI. You can do it in just one click by using the button below:
Follow instructions, click Add a Device and flash an SD card with that OS image dowloaded from balenaCloud. Enjoy the magic 🌟Over-The-Air🌟!
Once the application has been deployed successfully on your fleet and your device, you can follow these instructions.
Get into the device on balenaCloud. Go to the Terminal and access to the service xserver. In order to start the xserver server, type
startx
Now, open a new tab on the Terminal and open the service ignition-vision-client and type
startx ./visionclientlauncher.sh
At this moment you should be able to see the Ignition Vision Client application on your display.
