[Dprglist] AI Powered Identification with the Pidentifier!

[Carl Ott]

Pretty cool...

Even that it uses the stock USB version of Movidius, and the Google Vision
AIY uses a custom PiZero bonnet,
some of those steps they show may help Ray and I get our Google Vision AIY
doing things..

This space is poised to explode, with such capabilities becoming easier and
easier to implement, and with things like Movidius, feasible to embed in
battery powered devices...

For example, the IBM Watson visual recognizer that we used for the beer
finding SmartCamBot last year was pretty easy to train, but you were locked
into Watson APIs in the cloud.

The DesignSpark example above runs locally on battery, but was using a
pre-compiled recognizer.  The author skipped over the steps to make the
model.  The Google Vision AIY instructions show a non-trivial learning
curve to create a model for Movidius...

But recently, Microsoft has opened up a model creation tool that can export
Tensor Flow:

At some point, I want to try that and put a custom model into my Google AIY
Vision...


FWIW, MS Cognitive Services shows some cool things it's API can do:
