Object Detection and UART Communication on NVIDIA Jetson

This Python program combines object detection and UART communication on an NVIDIA Jetson device. It uses the NVIDIA detectnet model for object detection and communicates the detected object's name via UART.

Prerequisites

Before using this program, ensure you have the following:

  • An NVIDIA Jetson device (Jetson Nano, Jetson Xavier, etc.).
  • A camera connected to your Jetson device.
  • Python 3 installed on your Jetson.
  • Required Python packages, which can be installed using pip:
    • serial for UART communication
    • cv2 (OpenCV) for video capture
    • subprocess for running the detectnet command
    • threading for managing concurrent execution
    • queue for passing data between threads

Usage

  1. Clone or download this repository to your NVIDIA Jetson device.

  2. Make sure your camera is connected and operational.

  3. Execute the Python script with Python 3:

    python3 object_detection_uart.py
