Release 1.2.0
URL-based parameters and depthai-model-zoo integration!
In release 1.2.0
we introduced two new ways to obtain your .blob
file - from our model zoo and by using URLs as file pointers
Examples:
- Download megadepth from our zoo
import blobconverter blob_path = blobconverter.from_zoo(name="megadepth", zoo_type="depthai")
- Download using URL parameters
import blobconverter blob_path = blobconverter.from_openvino( xml="https://storage.openvinotoolkit.org/repositories/open_model_zoo/2021.4/models_bin/3/age-gender-recognition-retail-0013/FP16/age-gender-recognition-retail-0013.xml", xml_size=31526, xml_sha256="54d62ce4a3c3d7f1559a22ee9524bac41101103a8dceaabec537181995eda655", bin="https://storage.openvinotoolkit.org/repositories/open_model_zoo/2021.4/models_bin/3/age-gender-recognition-retail-0013/FP16/age-gender-recognition-retail-0013.bin", bin_size=4276038, bin_sha256="3586df5340e9fcd73ba0e2d802631bd9e027179490635c03b273d33d582e2b58" )
Other minor changes:
- Changed blobconverter base image from Ubuntu 18 to Ubuntu 20
- Updated Python from 3.7 to 3.8 in all OpenVINO versions using TensorFlow 2.x (so for >= 2020.4). Legacy versions that use TensorFlow 1.x still have to use 3.7 due to no TF available for 3.8
- Error message from API will be printed in CLI even if it cannot be json-decoded (bug with "model not found" message not being displayed)
