Coral USB TPU and Python #654
-
|
Newbie here, so apologies if this question has an obvious answer... I've muddled through and managed to install Viseron in Docker on Ubuntu, and am interested in buying a Coral USB TPU to get object detection working properly. Before I drop the dough on buying the Coral USB Accelerator, I thought I'd try installing some of the prerequisites listed here https://coral.ai/docs/accelerator/get-started/. All went well until I got to the Python part, where it failed The following packages have unmet dependencies: ie I have Python 3.10 installed, but need Python 3.9 or less. Now from my rudimentary understanding of Docker, I understand that the Viseron docker container actually has its own Python 3.9 and so as long as I have the Coral USB plugged in and the line -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb --privileged as a volume, then Viseron should make use of the USB Coral and use the Python 3.9 it gets from the docker container - ie it should run without me going to the trouble of downgrading 3.10 down to 3.9. Is my understanding correct? |

Its the beauty of Docker, it runs in sort of a light weight virtual machine so you dont have to worry about dependencies.
The Docker container has everything installed to run the Coral.
