Is it possible to install the PyTracking as a Conda or Pip module to use on edge devices e.g. RPi?

Hi there,

I am trying to set up the projects on my RPi 4 with 4GB.

Just wondering do we have a demo about how to install and run this code on RPi ?

Or even better, the PyTracking can be installed by conda or pip?

Hi,

Instructions for installation PyTracking on Ubuntu systems is available at https://github.com/visionml/pytracking/blob/master/INSTALL.md. Unfortunately we haven't tested our code on RPi or any other edge devices, and thus cannot help much in this case.

I believe you can find instructions for installing most of the dependencies online (e.g. https://medium.com/secure-and-private-ai-writing-challenge/a-step-by-step-guide-to-installing-pytorch-in-raspberry-pi-a1491bb80531). I am not sure if it is possible to install PrPool on these devices. As mentioned in other issues, you could try using tracker variants which do not use PrPool (e.g. multiscale_no_iounet) to avoid these installation issues.

hi @goutamgmb

Thank you for your help.

3 questions:

  1. How can I find which tracker use PrPool or not?
  2. How can I find out which dependencies used by PyTracking is supported or not on RPi?
  3. I saw PyTracking uses CUDA, does this mean we cannot use it on PRi as RPi does not have a NVIDIA GPU and thus not support cuda and PyTracking?

  1. So eco and lwl do not use PrPool. Additionally the parameter setting multiscale_no_iounet in atom does not use PrPool.
  2. I am not sure. I would suggest just trying installing the dependencies and see if you get any errors.
  3. Except the trackers using PrPool, all other trackers can be run without CUDA, on a CPU.

Hi @Ahsanr312 Sorry no, I am flat out, haven't got a chance to try it.
