Custom project on AMB82 MINI with YOLOv3/4/7 and Arduino IDE

To whom it may concern,

I am currently working on creating a custom recognition program using YOLOv3,v4 and v7. At the time being I am using YOLOv7 to train the AI module. I managed to get some results, however any of the files that are being generated after training (the “best.pt” file, which I have to upload on “AMB82 AI Model Conversion”: Amebapro2 AI Convert Model – Realtek IoT/Wi-Fi MCU Solutions) have size of about 74 MB or more. Therefore, no matter what the files will not be converted by the online converter and I don’t have the knowledge of using the files in another way so that I would be able to apply the AI module on the AMB82 MINI via Arduino IDE. Some ideas I had was to split the “best.pt” file, convert it and then merge it again, but by doing so maybe some vital information will be lost in the process. Furthermore, I thought if I use “.cfg” and “.weights” files it might work, then I tried using YOLOv3 and v4, but without any luck so far because of errors with the codes in Google Colab.

I was hoping someone with more experience in building and implementing custom AI modules to boards like the AMB82 MINI would be able to give me some advice on how I can do it myself as well.

Thank you in advance!

Give it a try, and if you still face any issues. Let me know.

Thanks!

Dear Kelvin,

Thank you for your fast replay!

I tried looking at many different locations on my computer, but I couldn’t find any of the scripts that were mentioned in the explanation. Is there something extra that I need to download, because I have included the following URL into the “Additional Boards Manager URLs” field in Arduino IDE: https://github.com/ambiot/ambpro2_arduino/raw/main/Arduino_package/package_realtek_amebapro2_index.json, however I can’t find the ~/NeuralNetwork/~ folder.

Hi @dtar,

You will have to use the early release version. Include this in your preferences: https://github.com/ambiot/ambpro2_arduino/raw/dev/Arduino_package/package_realtek_amebapro2_early_index.json. Install 4.0.7 early release version of SDK.

Thank you.
