Hey @saurabh

To access the Dataflow Compiler Studio, which is a graphical tool introduced in the Hailo AI Software Suite (2024-07), follow these steps:

  1. Install the Hailo Software Suite:

    • Ensure you have installed the Hailo AI Software Suite. The suite comes with all necessary tools, including the Dataflow Compiler, HailoRT, and the Model Zoo. If you haven’t installed it yet, follow the instructions provided in the installation guide or the run script (e.g., ./hailo_ai_sw_suite_<version>.run) .

  2. Launching the Dataflow Compiler Studio:

    • After the installation, the Dataflow Compiler Studio can be accessed via a new command-line interface tool: dfc-studio. This launches the graphical interface of the tool【46:2†source】.
    • The first release of the Studio includes only the parsing step, so it will allow you to parse and visualize models .

  3. Ensure Docker is Set Up:

    • If you’re working within a Docker environment, ensure Docker is set up and running as the Hailo Suite typically operates within Docker containers. You can check Docker-related commands if necessary .

  4. System Requirements:

    • Ensure that your system meets the necessary requirements, such as the appropriate Ubuntu version (22.04 or 20.04), Python version (3.9 or 3.10), and other dependencies, for smooth operation【46:14†source】【46:3†source】.

Let me know if you need any further details on setting up or using specific functionalities within the Dataflow Compiler Studio!
