I tried to run hailo benchmark path_to_hef on my 16 GB raspberry pi 5 and for any model, lets say yolov11n, the value of fps that I get is lower than what is mentioned on the official HAILO MODEL ZOO github repository or MODEL explorer. One of the reason I got to know was this is because the PCIe Gen3 x1 which uses just one lane while the official benchmarks are recorded while running on four lane PCIe interface. Is this the right reason ? and also in that case is there any officially recorded benchmarks for maximum fps that can be acheieved using hailo benchmark path_to_hef so that I can be sure I am able to achieve the maximum fps that I should achieve or in other words my AI accelerator is working fine.
Hi @Sameer_Nilkhan ,
You’re correct that PCIe configuration is a major reason why your measured FPS on Raspberry Pi 5 is lower than the official Hailo Model Zoo.
We have the detection simple app: hailo-apps/hailo_apps/python/pipeline_apps/detection_simple at main · hailo-ai/hailo-apps · GitHub
which is a good place to measure FPS.
Can you please share what are the FPS numbers you see in your hailo benchmark tests?
Thabks,
