Computer Vision (TensorFlow Lite)

program that can find patterns or make decisions from a previously unseen dataset.

Main steps

1 - Video/Roboflow: Gather images for dataset

2 - Colab: Train Custom Model

3 - Export Model

4 - Set up Pi

5 - Run on Pi

1 - Video/Roboflow: Gather images for dataset

Logo	Description
	We can film a video of the item we want to detect and then upload to Roboflow. On the Roboflow website, we can extract frames every X seconds to create a .jpg file each interval. Then we can begin labeling each image on Roboflow.

Roboflow is a website where you upload images, label them, and export a zip file (images & .xml files).

Useful to share dataset and have 3 people label at the same time

1.1 - Unlabeled Images to Labeled Images

Unlabled	Labeled (Desired Outcome)

2 - Colab: Train Custom Model

WARNING: This Colab began having issues in May 2023.

Logo	Description
	-The following website uses Python -here we set up libraries - collections of pre-written code that you can use to perform specific tasks -Prepare the dataset -Train the model -Evaluate the model performance with validation data -Export the model as .tflite file

Open up this pre-made online coding website called Google Colab

3 - Export Model

We can export the custom model after training as a .tflite file which will be uploaded to the Raspberry Pi and then can be used for Object Detection. Demo here

4 - Set up Pi
