Object Detection

Use Python to demonstrate Ultralytics: Object Detection effects on images, videos, and real-time detection.

1、Enable Maximum Board Performance

1.1、Enable MAX Power Mode

Enabling MAX Power Mode on Jetson will ensure all CPU and GPU cores are enabled:

sudo nvpmodel -m 0

1.2、Enable Jetson Clocks

Enabling Jetson Clocks will ensure all CPU and GPU cores run at maximum frequency:

xxxxxxxxxx
sudo jetson_clocks

2、Target Prediction: Image

Use yolo26n.pt to predict images included in the ultralytics project.

Enter code folder:

xxxxxxxxxx
cd /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yahboom_yolo26

Run code:

xxxxxxxxxx
python3 01.detection_image.py

Effect Preview

yolo recognition output image location: /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/

Sample code:

​x
from ultralytics import YOLO
​
# Load a model
model = YOLO("/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yolo26n.pt")
​
# Run batched inference on a list of images
results = model("/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/assets/bus.jpg")  # return a list of Results objects
​
# Process results list
for result in results:
    boxes = result.boxes  # Boxes object for bounding box outputs
    # masks = result.masks  # Masks object for segmentation masks outputs
    # keypoints = result.keypoints  # Keypoints object for pose outputs
    # probs = result.probs  # Probs object for classification outputs
    # obb = result.obb  # Oriented boxes object for OBB outputs
    result.show()  # display to screen
    result.save(filename="/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/bus_output.jpg")  # save to disk

3、Target Prediction: Video

Use yolo26n.pt to predict videos in the ultralytics project (not videos that come with ultralytics).

Enter code folder:

xxxxxxxxxx
cd /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yahboom_yolo26

Run code:

xxxxxxxxxx
python3 01.detection_video.py

Effect Preview

yolo recognition output video location: /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/

Sample code:

xxxxxxxxxx
import cv2
from ultralytics import YOLO
​
# Load the YOLO model
model = YOLO("/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yolo26n.pt")
​
# Open the video file
video_path = "/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/videos/people_animals.mp4"
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(video_path)
​
# Get the video frame size and frame rate
frame_width = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH))
frame_height = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT))
fps = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FPS))
​
# Define the codec and create a VideoWriter object to output the processed video
output_path = "/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/01.people_animals_output.mp4"
fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'mp4v')  # You can use 'XVID' or 'mp4v' depending on your platform
out = cv2.VideoWriter(output_path, fourcc, fps, (frame_width, frame_height))
​
# Loop through the video frames
while cap.isOpened():
    # Read a frame from the video
    success, frame = cap.read()
​
    if success:
        # Run YOLO inference on the frame
        results = model(frame)
​
        # Visualize the results on the frame
        annotated_frame = results[0].plot()
​
        # Write the annotated frame to the output video file
        out.write(annotated_frame)
​
        # Display the annotated frame
        cv2.imshow("YOLO Inference", annotated_frame)
​
        # Break the loop if 'q' is pressed
        if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord("q"):
            break
    else:
        # Break the loop if the end of the video is reached
        break
# Release the video capture and writer objects, and close the display window
cap.release()
out.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

4、Target Prediction: Real-time Detection

4.1、USB Camera

Use yolo26n.pt to predict USB camera footage.

Enter code folder:

xxxxxxxxxx
cd /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yahboom_yolo26

Run code: Click on the preview window and press 'q' key to terminate the program!

xxxxxxxxxx
python3 01.detection_camera_usb.py

Effect Preview

yolo recognition output video location: /home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/

Sample code:

xxxxxxxxxx
import cv2
from ultralytics import YOLO
​
# Load the YOLO model
model = YOLO("/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/yolo26n.pt")
​
# Open the camera
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
​
# Get the video frame size and frame rate
frame_width = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH))
frame_height = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT))
fps = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FPS))
​
# Define the codec and create a VideoWriter object to output the processed video
output_path = "/home/jetson/ultralytics/ultralytics/output/01.detection_camera_usb.mp4"
fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'mp4v')  # You can use 'XVID' or 'mp4v' depending on your platform
out = cv2.VideoWriter(output_path, fourcc, fps, (frame_width, frame_height))
​
# Loop through the video frames
while cap.isOpened():
    # Read a frame from the video
    success, frame = cap.read()
​
    if success:
        # Run YOLO inference on the frame
        results = model(frame)
​
        # Visualize the results on the frame
        annotated_frame = results[0].plot()
​
        # Write the annotated frame to the output video file
        out.write(annotated_frame)
​
        # Display the annotated frame
        cv2.imshow("YOLO Inference", annotated_frame)
​
        # Break the loop if 'q' is pressed
        if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord("q"):
            break
    else:
        # Break the loop if the end of the video is reached
        break
# Release the video capture and writer objects, and close the display window
cap.release()
out.release()
