Hi all,
i've tried using Coral on my PC.
Consider that i'm using a mini PC with a i7-10510U CPU.I have 9 camera: 7 are 4k, one 5MP and one 3MP. Codec is h265/h265+
Using Coral i can't seee any improvementif chek statistics in blue iris.
CPU is always at 100% of use and Temeprature is arount 85-90°C!

You should get the following in the logs

Code: Select all

objectdetection_coral_adapter.py: Edge TPU detected
If you get

Code: Select all

objectdetection_coral_adapter.py: has exited
reinstall the module or restart your windows machine
That's exactly the solution recommended by CP.AI, re-install until it works. It's not elegant or stylish, but seems to work.

Just ordered dual TPU version of card, in order to try more complex things. So far, really happy with my systems performance (and power consumption!) with Coral M.2! Seems to get more AI-models too to experiment.

You have checked CP.AI is actually using it, not just installed? And it's preferred to use substream for all motion recognition on BlueIris, because full resolution stream taxes unnecessarily cpu and offers no benefits for motion detection etc. Coral helps CP.AI to confirm initial detection by BI. Seems that your system is misconfigured/not working properly, unless you are living in some very populated place with lot of motion.
