Feel fortunate! I just so happen to be setting up my raspberry pi and coral usb accelerator for the first time TONIGHT, of all times :P thanks for the content!

[@EdjeElectronics]

Haha that's good timing!

[@diggleboy]

A Raspberry Pi 4 with the Coral Tensorflow accelerator is a great alternative to the NVidia Jetson Nano (completely sold out!). I'm going to give this a try because I can't afford to wait 18 weeks for them to be made in China and distributed to North America. Thank you for putting these great Tensorflow Light demonstrations together. Really great production quality.

[@kyleheppler2860]

Excellent video. Follows the written guide very well. I had already followed this guide and moved onto the how to train models on/for raspi. Really looking forward to that video, i tried the written and cant get it to work correctly for some reason. I have a fixed wing drone with a few hours of flight time soaring over the mountains everyday, and i want to train models based on the sky camera perspective. With proper programming ill have it automatically enter into holding patterns if certain animals or people are seen. Ill tag you in the video for credit once its up! Looking forward to the last video to finish this series!! Thanks bro

[@EdjeElectronics]

Thanks! That sounds like a VERY cool project, I look forward to seeing it. Feel free to comment a link to it on this video once you've got it done! My next video will just show how to convert a TensorFlow Lite model into an Edge TPU model using edgetpu-compiler (it will only be a 3 minute video). I am going to make a series of videos stepping through how to train a custom TensorFlow Lite model, but it won't be until later this summer when I start working on them.

I had no idea Google was making something like this. I've been using Nvidia GPU's for some time with Tensor..but this really piques my interest in devices specifically optimized for tensor models. Great video..I think I'll throw some parts together this weekend and try your non-edge tensor setup first. I doubt with all the shipping delays happening I'll be able to get a edge tpu very quickly to eval.

[@AffectiveApe]

And just like that I have everything working! Running the coral on std I am getting about max 16FPS, but I think this might be because I am connecting to the pi via AnyDesk which might be taking up memory. Sincerely, thank you for sharing your projects with the community, I find it pretty remarkable that it was so easy to get set up. Quick question: Does your previous tutorial on how to train your own tensorflow lite model NOT apply when you are using the coral USB accelerator? Is that the next video you are releasing?

[@EdjeElectronics]

Awesome! Glad you were able to get it all working. This tutorial (see link) does work for training your own TensorFlow Lite model which can then be compiled to run on the USB Accelerator.

Excellent! thank you so much for putting work on these videos mate, I truly appreciate it. And as a sign of appreciation, buying now with your link. May I suggest another video? Since you mention it is necessary to compile with a linux machine, could you make a video on how to make a Bootable, Persistent Linux USB? im struggling with that as I have a laptop which I use for work and I dont want to risk an error re partitioning the windows bootable drive. Seems like The Bootable USB option is the way to go but then some methods are not persistent or the space allocations are limited. Thanks again for your work!

[@EdjeElectronics]

Thanks for your support! My next video will show how to either create a Bootable Ubuntu Linux USB or install an Ubuntu virtual machine on your PC. I'm still figuring out which method is easiest and most robust (i.e. will result in the least amount of errors for users 😅). I love my bootable Ubuntu USB drive though! Here are some great instructions on how to set one up, straight from the Ubuntu website: ubuntu.com/tutorials/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#1-overview

[@tobieabel7474]

Great video, adding to a great series! I'll be buying the USB Accelerator from your link. Like others here I'm using Goolge Colabs in conjunction with your videos as it simplifies the process for the less experienced amongst us. I noticed that on some of your clips the frame rate is about 19/20 FPS and for others its over 30, was just wondering if you knew what was making the difference? My particular project is to make an automated goalkeeper for subutteo football, so the quicker i get the FPS ,the less blurry the image captured, the more likely the pi camera will identify the ball and save it! Thanks again for the great tutorials.

[@EdjeElectronics]

Good question! The video that has 30FPS is only 640x480 resolution, while the video at the end is 1280x720 resolution. The lower the webcam/video resolution, the faster it will run. Your project can probably use a 640x480 resolution, so try that! You can set the resolution to 640x480 by using the --resolution argument: "python TFLite_detection_webcam.py --modeldir=Sample_TFLite_model --resolution=640x480 --edgetpu"

[@Agronomistapolo]

Great tutorial I get this error. "ValueError: Failed to load delegate from libedgetpu.so.1.0"

[@Wingly113]

Would running on Nvidia Jetson Nano improves the FPS? The usb accelerator doesn't justify the price

[@JeromeDemers]

21fps with Coral vs 4fps on the PI alone!

[@楊贄豪]

Hi, If I just want return the label in the terminal what can I do

[@contractorwolf]

hey, sorry I cant tell your name but I was wondering the same thing (interested in a similar problem for and idea I am thinking about). I took a look at his code and found that it would be fairly easy to print out the labels found on object detected to the terminal by just editing the python script he is running that displays the camera feed with the labels and scores. If you look at this file: github.com/EdjeElectronics/TensorFlow-Lite-Object-Detection-on-Android-and-Raspberry-Pi/blob/master/TFLite_detection_video.py#L138 you can see the detected "labels" of the objects seen in each frame and a simple print statement for each item in that label array would do it for you, you could also print the corresponding item in the scores array to the terminal if that would help as well. Contact me on twitter @contractorwolf if you are still stuck

Thanks for the videos! Very helpful. I'm a newbie and will experiment at creating a burglar detector. Every year or two, we get a bunch of bored kids visit our subdivision and try to burglarize vehicles.

[@davidverheyen6635]

Looks promising. Would this combination (pi4 with google Coral) be able to detect of which species a bird is out of a list of about 50 in realtime?

[@EdjeElectronics]

Yes, it definitely would be able to do it in real time. However, the accuracy might not be as good as you'd like. Lightweight models like MobileNet aren't very good at distinguishing between visually similar objects (like a finch vs a sparrow). You should check out this bird classification model on TF Hub (it even lets you upload your own images to test out): tfhub.dev/google/lite-model/aiy/vision/classifier/birds_V1/3

[@liamhan8145]

Thank you for the video! Big Thumbs UP! Did you use a high speed (5gbps) usb-c cable to get up to ~30-40 fps? I only get around 20fps using the google coral

[@EdjeElectronics]

You're welcome! Yes, I used a USB 3.0 cable to plug in the Coral USB Accelerator. The reduced framerate you're seeing might be because you're running at a higher resolution. I get 30-40 FPS when running the camera at 640x480, and about 20FPS when running at 1280x720.

[@liamhan8145]

@@EdjeElectronics The google coral came with a usb cable. Did you purchase a separate one with higher data transmit speed? I see. I'm trying to design a mask detector using rpi4+coral and display it on a 50" TV. Would using a bigger screen reduce the fps?

[@EdjeElectronics]

@@liamhan8145 Nope, I just used the cable that it came with. And no, using a bigger screen will not reduce the FPS. (However, the video might look kind of grainy or blurry.) I've been developing a mask detection camera at work, and we're going to open-source all the code for it in a couple weeks! I'll share that with you once it's ready.

[@liamhan8145]

@@EdjeElectronics That would be amazing (: Thank you! As of now, I am using MobileNet SSD v2 (Faces) from coral.ai/models/. And I used transfer learning to add couple layers at the end for mask detection. With these two models, I'm trying to first detect a face and then once finding the ROI, pass that through the mask detection. There's been a lot of nice videos of others who did this. But none of them uses google coral so the speed is very slow. I'm guessing you might be planning something similar! In terms of implementation with google coral, both models just have to be in edge tpu format right? And then just pass them through the coral? Thank you!

Unfortunately, TFLite does not support Faster-RCNN models. It only supports SSD-MobileNet models. Maybe Google will update it to support heavier models some day!

[@woolfel]

@@EdjeElectronics bummer, I was hoping they would add support for it eventually. A couple of recent papers in 2019 were making gradual progress on neural net compression. I've been thinking or asking myself this question, "what if you remove the residual layers after the model is trained?" One of the primary benefits of resnet is reducing vanishing gradient during training. If we remove the residual layers, you probably wouldn't be able to retrain the model, but it might make it easier to convert to tflite.

[@Doomslayer151]

i think can use a RTX2050 for this job it haves TENSOR CORES inside by CUDA CORES and WAY MORE CHEAP(gives 2x more performance than same priced tpu) AND WAY MORE EFECTIVE WAY(when nvidia drivers available to linux arm there is hardest part)

[@azimsametergin9954]

It seems logical, but isn't power consumption one of the most important things in such embedded systems?

Tried this but keep getting a "Segmentation Fault" error

Has the problem been solved?

Hi I followed the instructions but why my fps only increase to 10

[@contractorwolf]

hey wentao look at my question (I have the same issue). I found that my RPi was failing on the SD Card Speed Test and that my affect the possible FPS when running it. I am interested to see if your SD card fails the same test as mine, that might be the issue? Let me know. The test is here: Menu > Accessories > RPI Diagnostics >SD Card Speed Test

[@Spreme91]

@@contractorwolf could you find the performance difference after changing SD card ? cuz mine stucks at 10fps as well

[@contractorwolf]

@@Spreme91 did not seem to help me, passes all diagnostic tests now with the faster card but still can only achieve ~18fps with the cable that comes with the Coral, I made changes for my app to his original code that drops my performance down to like a 12fps (doing calculations to find the largest identified object and writing a bunch of data to a tiny TFT). Not the greatest performance, but good enough for my project. Let me know what you are doing or if you find any tweaks that help. @contractorwolf on twitter

I have a quick question, with the coral USB accelerator why am I only getting 10 fps. Note that before the coral accelerator I was running 0.9 fps. I have a raspberry pi 4 with 4 gb of ram. I do not know why it is running so poorly.

[@alanhunter351]

I had the same issue, and I doubled my frame rate by using a high-quality USB 3 cable. The cable that came with my Coral USB accelerator may have been damaged or defective.

[@Ashukr711]

Hey can you please tell me is it possible to convert the detected object in to speech. That will help as i am trying to this as a final year project.

[@justinjanes3431]

Coral has a price drop right now FYI circa July 2020

[@EdjeElectronics]

Nice, thanks for the heads up!

[@marsrocket]

Why don’t you plug in the coral until after the libraries are installed? This isn’t Windows where drivers will be auto-installed.

[@KadekSukaAstawa]

Would you like to sell your USB Accelerator to me? I've looked everywhere and always run out

[@EbrahimHasan]

Is it possible to use it on a windows machine, sir?

[@LaPetiteSouflerie]

Yeah

[@davidploetz2796]

Hey, can Edje Electronics contact me directly? My inquiry is pertaining to OmniVision OV6948.
