Hailo 8 unavailable on Hailo Model Zoo v5

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working on a project with the Raspberry Pi 5 and the Hailo AI hat + with 26 TOPS.

I have a custom dataset I’ve been trying to convert into the Hailo8 format for .hef but whenever I try to convert from .onnx to .hef, I get this error:

“hailomz compile: error: argument --hw-arch: invalid choice: ‘hailo8’ (choose from ‘hailo15h’, ‘hailo15m’, ‘hailo15l’, ‘hailo10h’, ‘hailo10p’).”

I’ve been through all the tutorials I can find and it seems to be that the model zoo git hub doesn’t seem to be sharing the Hailo8 versions anymore. Hailomz --version returns Hailo Model Zoo v5.0.0

I’ve been at this for the last week spending countless hours, if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please let me know.

Thank you!

Hey @Rob_DeLaMare,

The v5.0.0 is only compatible with Hailo10 and newer versions. Since you’re working with Hailo8, you’ll want to use version 2.16 or 2.15 instead.

If you’re using the DFC version, go with 3.32 or 3.31 - the exact one depends on which MZ version you have.

Hope this helps!
