What is a Vision Thing project and how do you use the BeagleBone AI to do one?

 

There's a lot of variety with how you choose to implement your project.  It's a great opportunity to do something creative that stretches the imagination of what hardware can do.  Your project can be either a vision based project involving anything that is related to Computer Vision and Machine Learning , Camera Vision and AI based projects, Deep Learning, using hardware.  Or, it can be a graphics project involving something graphical such as adding a graphical display to a microcontroller, image processing on a microcontroller, image recognition interface a camera to a microcontroller,  or FPGA - camera interfacing/image processing/graphical display.

 

What makes the Beaglebone AI suitable for Vision Thing  Projects?

 

BeagleBone AI is a high-end board for developers building artificial-intelligence and computer-vision applications. Its main AI features include a Texas Instruments (TI) AM5729 system on chip (SoC), TI C66x digital-signal-processor (DSP) cores and embedded-vision-engine (EVE) cores. The board has the same form-factor as the popular and cheap BeagleBone Black but with much higher specifications.

 

 

The AI-ready board comes with 1GB RAM and 16GB on-board eMMC flash with a high-speed interface, a USB Type-C port for power and a dual-role controller, and a USB Type-A host. There's also Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi. With preinstalled software, the BeagleBone AI also saves buyers from having to download equipment to get the device up and running.

  • Hi,

    I'd like to build a in-car safety device, which will monitor driver's attention to the road and create alerts if driver become sleepy.

    It will use BB-AI to detect and analyze drivers face, eyes, check if they are open, if they are focused on the road.

    The video stream will be captured by a USB and processed by OpenCV.

    In addition it can be connected to a gas analyzer to detect if level of CO2 and TVOC are safe.

     

    Thank you for reading my entry!

    Another good idea. I have battled with tiredness myself when driving. Not so much now as I no longer drive long distances to work but family visits still happen. Usually I just stop for break and/or sleep. There's nothing like a 10 minutes snooze when you get tired driving.

    The statistics is quite alarming in this regard..Here are the quotes from US  https://www.cdc.gov/features/dsdrowsydriving/index.html

    • An estimated 1 in 25 adult drivers (aged 18 years or older) report having fallen asleep while driving in the previous 30 days.
    • The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that drowsy driving was responsible for 72,000 crashes, 44,000 injuries, and 800 deaths in 2013.3 However, these numbers are underestimated and up to 6,000 fatal crashes each year may be caused by drowsy drivers.

    I think there is a lot of value to have a robust solution for this safety challenge.
