| # Edge TPU Python API |
| |
| This repository contains an easy-to-use Python API to work with Coral devices: |
| |
| * [Dev Board](https://coral.withgoogle.com/products/dev-board/) |
| * [USB Accelerator](https://coral.withgoogle.com/products/accelerator/) |
| |
| You can run inference and do transfer learning. |
| |
| |
| ## Build and install from source |
| |
| 1. Sync the source code as per the [Mendel get started guide]( |
| https://coral.googlesource.com/docs/+/refs/heads/master/GettingStarted.md). |
| |
| 1. `cd packages/edgetpu/` |
| |
| 1. `./build_package.sh` |
| |
| 1. `tar xzf edgetpu_api_<version>.tar.gz` |
| |
| 1. `cd edgetpu_api/` |
| |
| 1. `sudo ./install.sh` |
| |
| 1. Now check for the installed library at `/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/edgetpu/` |
| |
| If it seems the library did not update compared to an older version you had installed, then |
| run the `uninstall.sh` script and then rerun `install.sh` (it probably skipped installing the new |
| library because the version number hasn't been updated yet). |
