In Part 1, I tested whether a YOLO detector could help vision-language models (VLMs) understand road video. In Part 2, I compared the combined pipeline with both of its components and selected a stronger detector. This time I moved the experiment to an 8 GB NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super. I wanted to know what … Read more
My wife’s 512 GB iPhone ran out of space. With no room left, the next iOS update couldn’t install. We couldn’t just start deleting photos: there were years of them, and I wanted a separate copy first. This sounded like a 20-minute job. Four hours later, I had used two Windows 11 PCs, a Mac, … Read more
In Part 1, Can AI models work better together? Part 1: Understanding road videos, I tested whether YOLO detections could help vision-language models (VLMs) count road users. The results looked mixed: adding YOLO reduced absolute count error for every tested VLM, but often lowered the graded score. The measurements were correct for that setup. What … Read more
I kept seeing examples of large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) using more specialized machine-learning models as tools. A general model could handle the question and final answer, while a model built for one narrow job—such as detecting objects or reading text—could provide more precise input. It sounded useful, but I wanted to … Read more
In this post I’ll describe how to install Ultralytics on Jetson Orin Nano to be able to export and run model (use for inference). The use case I was doing is: Train YOLO-model for the image recognition using PC / Nvidia GPU. Then copy trained model to the Jetson Orin Nano. Export model to TensorFlow … Read more
Nvidia guide on setup Jetson Orin Nano Dev Kit is here:https://www.jetson-ai-lab.com/initial_setup_jon.htmlIf you follow the guide and are stuck or you have a lot of questions. Welcome! Nvidia SDK Manager Windows 11/Wsl 2 I mainly use Windows 11 as my work system. Wsl 2 is a fantastic tool for cross platform development. My first approach was … Read more
In this article I would like to describe how Postman can be used to test gRPC .Net service with the SSL support. .Net gRPC Service Simple .Net gRPC service can be created by following Microsoft article:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/tutorials/grpc/grpc-start?view=aspnetcore-7.0&tabs=visual-studio Once service is created it uses self-signed certificate to support SSL in the dev environment. Which is great because … Read more
