Running Advance demos#

The same Python and C++ demo applications can be used to run multiple inference models and also work with multiple inputs with just simple changes in the config file.

From a repo of input sources, output sources and models one can define advance dataflows which connect them in various configurations. Details on configuration file parameters can be found in Demo Configuration file

Single input multi inference demo#

Here is an example of a single-input, multi-inference demo which takes a camera input and run multiple networks on each of them.

debian@beaglebone:/opt/edge_ai_apps/apps_python# ./app_edgeai.py ../configs/single_input_multi_infer.yaml

Sample output for single input, multi inference demo is as shown below,

Fig. 283 Sample output showing single input, mutli-inference output#

We can specify the output window location and sizes as shown in the configuration file,

flows:
    flow0:
        input: input0
        models: [model0, model1, model2, model3]
        outputs: [output0, output0, output0, output0]
        mosaic:
            mosaic0:
                width:  800
                height: 450
                pos_x:  160
                pos_y:  90
            mosaic1:

                pos_y:  540
            mosaic3:
                width:  800

Multi input multi inference demo#

Here is an example of a multi-input, multi-inference demo which takes a camera input and video input and runs multiple networks on each of them.

debian@beaglebone:/opt/edge_ai_apps/apps_python# ./app_edgeai.py ../configs/multi_input_multi_infer.yaml

Sample output for multi input, multi inference demo is as shown below,

../../../../_images/edgeai-multi-input-multi-infer.jpg
