I have installed Movidius NCSDK on my Windows 10 machine and
did some testing. In the pictures below
you will kindly see that image-classifier software working on UBUNTU Linux
operating system and on VM Virtual Box
classifies a cat and a dog correctly.
In fact it classifies that the dog is a Labrador which I would not be
able to. I am not a great fan of dogs.
There is a neural network behind all this. It is GoogLeNet. This is a tensorfile which includes all the
elements of a neural network which is trained by Google to classify images.
Movidius NCS Neural Computing Stick is a small USB device to
which the GoogleNet tensor file, namel graph is loaded. To make an inference a picture – a cat.jpg
and later a dog.jpg is also loaded to the Movidius NCS. After a while, a short while, the results are
given back from the Movidius NCS.
Speed, processing power, less heating are some advantages of
the Movidius NCS.
