OpenVINO™ Model Server fork of MediaPipe.

This repository allows users to take advantage of OpenVINO™ in the Mediapipe framework. It includes inference calculators which can replace Tensorflow backend with OpenVINO™ Runtime. That way, you can expect more efficient execution and lower latency on CPU.

Check the included demos with pipeline examples or create your own graphs and execution flows.

List of changes introduced in this repository fork

• added Dockerfile.openvino dockerfile that creates runtime and development environment.
• added Makefile file with build, test and demo targets for the ease of use.
• modified build_desktop_examples.sh script to build new demos.
• added calculators and calculators for OpenVINO™ inference in mediapipe graphs detailed description.
• modified bazel targets to use OpenVINO™ inference calculators (the list of available demos is in the table below).
• modified WORKSPACE file to add OpenVINO™ Model Server dependencies. Specifically target @ovms//src:ovms_lib as dependency from OpenVINO Model Server
• modified graphs and bazel targets to use OpenVINO™ inference instead of TensorFlow inference.
• added setup_ovms.py script to create models repository used in OpenVINO™ inference. The script needs to be executed to prepare specific directory structures with tflite models and config.json in the mediapipe/models/ovms.
• modified setup_opecv.py to install 4.7.0 OpenCV version instead of previous 3.4.
