Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the billions of edge devices around the world connected to the internet for various applications such as collecting and analyzing data. Data analytics on these edge devices can protect user privacy and reduce communication costs for these applications. Specifically, computer vision is a core technique to build these applications on these devices, where object detection is an imperative task that is to recognize the category of the object and label its location. This paper proposed to implement object detection on Raspberry Pi via machine learning models. It is to employ Raspberry Pi Kits and web camera to detect predefined objects by running mobile deep learning models. Moreover, it will extend existing models to recognize weapons in images with transfer learning techniques, which is to fine-tune these models on new image datasets collected from Internet. In addition, it will apply Google accelerator to improve the detection speed. Preliminary work has shown that the models can detect general objects such as person, keyboard, laptop, and table on Raspberry Pi 3 effectively.
