@Zachary-Lowell-0 Got it, I will try that out and will let you know if I have any more questions. Thanks for your help!

I see, so my model is not supported by the voxl-tflite-server since it is float16 and the tflite server only supports 32 bit precision if we want to use floating point values. Am I understanding that correctly or am I missing something? Cause the default YOLOv5 model that is included in the VOXL 2 model (yolov5_float16_quant.tflite) is also of float 16 precision so I wonder how the functions in tensor_data.h handle that.

One question, what command did you use to view these error logs from voxl-tflite server?

Error in TensorData<float>: should not reach here

Hi @Zachary-Lowell-0, Yes I am confirming that I followed the instructions in that gitlab repository.
Here is the tflite file and labels file: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kyjanabVSP_pH_jsQyjQG9z6hFYZ_iij?usp=drive_link

Hello,

I am trying to run a custom YOLOv8 model on the voxl-tflite-server. The model detects ships and the yolov8_labels.txt file only contains one ship class. However, when I run the tflite server and view it on voxl-portal I can see the video feed, but cannot see any bounding box detections even when the target is in the camera frame.
I tried another variation for the labels file by having the class index and label name like this: 0 ship, but that doesn't work either.
I also ran voxl-inspect-detections but it doesn't show any detections there.

When I tested the default yolov5 and yolov8 models on voxl-tflite-server, it displays the bounding boxes and shows the list of detections in voxl-inspect-detections just fine.

If it helps, I used this command to convert the YOLOv8 model to the tflite format:

yolo export model=best.pt format=tflite

I use the quantized 16 bit tflite model named yolov8_best_float16.tflite.

This is how I set up the config file /etc/modalai/voxl-tflite-server.conf:

{
"skip_n_frames":	0,
"model":	"/usr/bin/dnn/yolov8_best_float16.tflite",
"input_pipe":	"/run/mpa/front_small_color/",
"delegate":	"gpu",
"requires_labels":	true,
"labels":	"/usr/bin/dnn/yolov8_labels.txt",
"allow_multiple":	false,
"output_pipe_prefix":	"yolov8"
}

Is there anything I missed that is leading to no detections on the voxl-tflite-server?

I would appreciate any help!

@tom No I don't have a wifi dongle connected.

@tom I ran ifconfig on voxl2, but I haven't found anything on wlan0. This is the output I get after running that command:

would any of these help with finding the voxl's ip address?

Hello, I am trying to read mavlink messages like the pressure and altitude from the VOXL 2 sensors using pymavlink. I wanted to make sure that the udpin to the mavlink connection is correct?

I am having trouble connecting to the mavlink server. I set the port number to 14557 based on the first diagram in this page: (https://docs.modalai.com/mavlink/).
When I use localhost as the port, . When I use localhost, I get an error that says OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use, and when I use the IP address 192.168.8.10 it gives an error that says OSError: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address.

If that is not the correct IP address, how can I find the IP address for my specific VOXL? It is worth noting that my VOXL isn't connected to the internet, but is physically connected to the flight controller by wire.

Thanks for your help!

@Alex-Kushleyev I haven't yet but will try doing that. I just wasn't sure how to configure the camera for VIO. Thank you!

I am trying to implement Visual Inertial Odometry using the QVIO server to find the local XYZ positions, but the documentation only mentions it working with the tracking camera (Camera and IMU Calibration section in https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-qvio-server-0_9/#resetting-vio).

Would I be able to use the OV7982 image sensor on VOXL 2 so that I get a similar output as the one below when I run voxl-inspect-qvio? If that would work, are there additional configurations or parameters I need to change before running VIO?

yocto:/$ voxl-inspect-qvio

    T_imu_wrt_vio (m)   |Roll Pitch Yaw (deg)| state| error_code
   -4.96    0.94   -0.00|  17.9  -52.3    9.3| OKAY | 

@Alex-Kushleyev Got it. Thank you your help and for taking the time to answer my questions!
