Overall Detection
Orin board users can directly open the terminal and input the tutorial commands to run directly. Jetson-Nano board users need to enter the docker container first, then input the tutorial commands in the docker to start the program.
1. Introduction
MediaPipe is a data stream processing machine learning application development framework developed and open-sourced by Google. It is a graph-based data processing pipeline used to build applications that use various forms of data sources such as video, audio, sensor data, and any time series data. MediaPipe is cross-platform and can run on embedded platforms (Jetson nano, etc.), mobile devices (iOS and Android), workstations and servers, and supports mobile GPU acceleration. MediaPipe provides cross-platform, customizable ML solutions for real-time and streaming media.
The core framework of MediaPipe is implemented in C++ and provides support for languages such as Java and Objective C. The main concepts of MediaPipe include Packet, Stream, Calculator, Graph, and Subgraph.
Features of MediaPipe:
- End-to-end acceleration: Built-in fast ML inference and processing accelerates even on ordinary hardware.
- Build once, deploy anywhere: Unified solution for Android, iOS, desktop/cloud, web and IoT.
- Ready-to-use solutions: Cutting-edge ML solutions that showcase the full capabilities of the framework.
- Free and open source: Framework and solutions under Apache2.0, fully scalable and customizable.
2. MediaPipe Hands
Refer to the content in section 1.2 Hand Detection for details, which will not be repeated here.
3. MediaPipe Pose
Refer to the content in section 2.2 Hand Detection for details, which will not be repeated here.
4. Overall Detection
Combining the content from the previous two sections, this example implements the functionality to detect both hands and body.
