Requirements to Port TensorFlow Model to Hailo8

Hi

I need to port an Inflated 3D Convnet (I3D) model to Hailo8. I only have access to:

  • Windows Laptop (x86), which also has Ubuntu on WSL2
  • Raspberry Pi 5 (ARM) with Raspberry Pi OS
  • Google Colab Pro

My understanding is that I cannot use either of those to quantize a TensorF|ow model for Hailo8. Is that true? I do have access to an x86 Linux machine at work but I do not have root/sudo permissions to install Hailo SDK.

Is there a way to use any of the available resources to port the model?

Thank you.

Hey @Asfandyar_Khan,

Welcome to the community!

Yes, you can definitely port I3D to Hailo-8 with your current setup. The easiest route is running the Hailo AI SW Suite on x86-64 Linux - ideally using our pre-built Docker container. The nice thing is you won’t need root access inside the container itself, just the ability to run Docker on your host machine.

The suite has everything you need - Dataflow Compiler, Model Zoo, and all the other tools to get your I3D model working on Hailo-8.

Let me know if you run into any issues getting started!
