Hi @Loi_Tran
Can you please confirm the contents of this folder? /home/RPiAI/workspace/hailo_examples/pySDK/my_models

44

Hi @Loi_Tran
Please enter any dummy value for checksum. The actual value does not matter as long as it is not left empty.

Here. Thanks very much!

Thanks @Loi_Tran for sharing this. Please add some dummy value to checksum and try again (do not leave the string empty).

Thanks @shashi for reply!

i was added dummy value to checksum but i get the same error:

I realy bad english! Thank for your help!

Hi @Loi_Tran
In your code you have model_zoo = '/home/RPiAI/workspace/hailo_examples/pySDK/my_models' but the model files seem to be located at '/home/RPiAI/workspace/hailo_examples/py_hailo8l/my_models'. Hope you can see the difference: pysdk instead of py_hailo8l.

Hi @shashi
I just wanted to say a big thank you for taking the time to help me fix that code bug. I was really stuck, and your support made a huge difference. I truly appreciate your patience and your willingness to jump in and assist.

By the way, I was thinking of trying this code using a camera instead of an image. Since I’m still new to Python, is there anything I should keep in mind or be careful about? I’d really appreciate any tips!

Hi @Loi_Tran
See our quick start guide on how to use it on video sources (video files, web cameras, rtsp stream): hailo_examples/examples/001_quick_start.ipynb at main · DeGirum/hailo_examples

Hi, I have a finetuned Yolov8m model that I compiled to a hef file and i tried running it with Degirum SDK but got an error:

degirum.exceptions.DegirumException: [ERROR]Loading model failed
HailoRT Runtime Agent: Failed to create infer model, status = HAILO_FILE_OPERATION_FAILURE.
hailo_model_context_manager.cpp: 248 [DG::HailoModelContextManager::acquireModel]
When running model 'yolov8m'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

shortened verion of the code:

detection_model = dg.load_model(
		model_name=args.degirum_model,
		zoo_url='models',
		inference_host_address='@local',
	)

cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
ret, frame = cap.read()
det_inf = detection_model(np.expand_dims(frame, 0))

Any ideas of what could the issue be?

55

HI @JanDev
Is this happening for only this model?

56

Hi, I’m sorry for the message, I transferred the model using the local network and it got corrupted. Now it’s ok!

Hi, sorry to interrupt again.
I was easily able to get the yolo model working, but Im having problems with an implementation of a zero_dce model. I want to enhance the captured image using this model and then feed the enhanced image to the yolo network.

I downloaded the enhanced model from this link (the compiled hef version; Btw I tested out the onnx version without degirum and it works) and wrote a script to test it out:

import degirum as dg
import cv2
import numpy as np

enhancement_model = dg.load_model(
    model_name='zero_dce',
    inference_host_address='@local',
    zoo_url='models',
)
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
if not cap.isOpened():
    print("Error: Unable to open camera")
    exit(1)
cap.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH, 600)
cap.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT, 400)

ret, frame = cap.read()
if not ret or frame is None:
    print("Error: Failed to capture frame")
    cap.release()
    exit(1)

cv2.imwrite("captured_image.jpg", frame)
print("Image saved as 'captured_image.jpg'")

frame_resized = cv2.resize(frame, (600, 400), cv2.INTER_LINEAR)
model_input = frame.astype(np.uint8)
enh_inf = enhancement_model(model_input)
enhanced_frame = enh_inf.image_overlay if hasattr(enh_inf, "image_overlay") else enh_inf.image
cv2.imwrite("enhanced_image.jpg", enhanced_frame)
print("Enhanced image saved as 'enhanced_image.jpg'")
cap.release()

But the saved enhanced image is exactly the same one that was captured before the enhancement (no change). What could be the problem?

Hi @JanDev
This is because the image_overlaymethod for these type of models is not supported. We are preparing an example on how to visualize the output image which we will share shortly.
