13.4 AI CC Jnano - terrytaylorbonn/auxdrone GitHub Wiki

24.0805 (0625)

Epic 4 deals with "advanced" AI.

Part 13 deals with AI (mostly on CC's (companion computers) (Gdrive folder)).

Section 13.4 deals with AI on Jetson Nano CC (13.4b on Orin Nano)


Document 13.4-1 covers Nvidia tutorials (by Nvidia expert Dusty)

For the first 6 months of 2024, I focused (more or less) on the following

  • Getting copters into air (FPV and Pixhawk) (epics 1+2)
  • Adding basic AI to Pixhawk (epic 3), flight test
  • Simulation (SIH) testing (first third of epic 4)

A few weeks ago I arrived in Ukraine and have been working on

  • Section 13.4 AI on JNano (last third of epic 4) / subsection 13.4-1 Nvidia AI tutorials. These have not been easy to get running, but recently (24.0802) had some amazing success... the Nano and the Nvidia software has really impressed me (even an amateur like myself can get this stuff running)

  • Document 13.4-1_.docx. Describes (WIP) my steps in replicating Nvidia tutorials ("TERRY" in diagram below"). The highlighted sections in the diagram below document what i did (my docx organizes and explains the details much better than the nvidia github/docs)

  • In particular 13.4-1_.docx section "S3E3 (TERRY) 24.0802-0803" is interesting. It shows how I retrained a dataset and tested successfully 24.0802-0803. This was an amazingly complex and long process, and it worked (thanks to the quality of Nvidia HW/SW and Dusty videos).

OTHER DOCUMENTS

13.4-1b_babu_v02_24.0321.docx.

This doc shows my attempt to duplicate the basic quick start. I could not get it working. The narrator strikes me as a non-tech person who is following a script.

13.4-2_ai-nvidia_(wh)_v07_24.0110.docx

24.0110-0116. 920s working. Whorter AI (congress). Face, eyes, OpenCV.

13.4-3_pymavlink_haar_NANO_v24_24.0212.docx

Haarcascades Nano. Working examples. 24.0110-0118.

13.4b_ai_orin_nano_v01_24.0316.docx (pass? not ready for prime time?)

24.0805 $500 Orin Nano. My impression is that this is not a good idea. Seems way too complex to setup... I think sticking with the old Jnano + PI5 is the way to go for now.

amazon reviews say it all....

2022.02 PX4 VIO Setup with Jetson Nano and Intel T265 - Auterion VIO Fork Dennis Baldwin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brkk0ZmnGgs

This is an in-depth tutorial of how to get VIO up and running on a Pixhawk-based drone from NXP. It's the HoverGames drone with some modifications to incorporate a Jetson Nano and Intel T265 Realsense camera for indoor vision positioning. I encourage you to review the gist I created linked below, as well as the chapters feature of YouTube to jump to various sections of this video. Please leave any comments or questions below if you're working through this setup. I'll be happy to help!
