gender_age

Introduction

This app does facial detection and age/gender inference using the Intel Neural Compute Stick 2.

The example does face detection on a camera frame using face-detection-retail.0004, crops the detected faces, then does age and gender inference using the age-gender network. When running, the app shows the realtime camera preview while overlaying, a box around faces (color coded for gender), and an estimated age. All models can be found on the Open Model Zoo. This sample uses pre-compiled IRs, so the model optimizer is not utilized.

Building the Example

To run the example code do the following :

  1. Open a terminal and change directory to the sample base directory
  2. Type the following command in the terminal: make all

Running the Example

After building the example you can run the example code by doing the following :

  1. Open a terminal and change directory to the sample base directory
  2. Type the following command in the terminal: make run

When the application runs normally, another window should pop up and show the feed from the webcam/usb cam. The program should perform inferences on faces on frames taken from the webcam/usb cam.

Prerequisites

This program requires:

  • 1 NCS1/NCS2 device
  • OpenVINO 2020.1 Toolkit
  • A webcam (laptop or USB)

*It may run with older versions but you may see some glitches such as the GUI Window not closing when you click the X in the title bar, and other key binding issues.

Note: All development and testing has been done on Ubuntu 16.04 on an x86-64 machine.

Makefile

Provided Makefile has various targets that help with the above mentioned tasks.

make run or make run_cpp

Runs the sample application.

make help

Shows available targets.

make all

Builds and/or gathers all the required files needed to run the application.

make data

Gathers all of the required data need to run the sample.

make deps

Builds all of the dependencies needed to run the sample.

make default_model

Compiles an IR file from a default model to be used when running the sample.

make install-reqs

Checks required packages that aren't installed as part of the OpenVINO installation.

make uninstall-reqs

Uninstalls requirements that were installed by the sample program.

make clean

Removes all the temporary files that are created by the Makefile.
