Personal Accomplishments
- Dash Cam Bringup & Testing:
- Setted up Python virtual environment to run detection and OCR models with streaming Camera Module 3 input
- Deployed and benchmarked ML license plate detection model on RPi 5, PyTorch format achieves around 370ms latency per frame, ONNX format achieves around 350ms latency per frame, and NCNN format achieves around 160ms latency per frame with streaming camera input
- Deployed and benchmarked ML license plate OCR model on RPi 5, Paddle format achieves around 120ms latency per frame with streaming camera input, and ONNX format was deployed unsuccessfully
- Wrote the end-to-end pipeline, with the main thread recording footage in 1 minute 480p20 clips, and the inference thread inferencing 2304*1296 resolution images and storing cropped license plate results at around 3fps
