REST API

Use the REST API to run inference. Copy the commands below.

Curl
curl -X POST "http://<R20_IP>:8000/api/models/deeplab/predict" \
  -F "file=@test.jpg"
Python
import requests

resp = requests.post(
    "http://<R20_IP>:8000/api/models/deeplab/predict",
    files={"file": open("test.jpg", "rb")},
    timeout=30,
)
print(resp.json())

Model Details

DeepLab v3 MobileNet v2 on reComputer R Series (CM5 + Hailo)

DeepLab v3 MobileNet v2 semantic segmentation with HailoRT, live preview, and REST inference.

This page is adapted from rpi5_hailo8_deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2/README.md in reComputer-R20-CV. It targets reComputer R Series (CM5 + Hailo) with a PCIe Hailo-8 accelerator.

Hardware and Host Setup

ItemValue
BoardreComputer R Series with Raspberry Pi CM5
AcceleratorHailo-8 M.2 over PCIe, exposed as /dev/hailo0
OSRaspberry Pi OS Bookworm, aarch64
Host driverhailo-all apt package
Validated HailoRT4.23.x; host driver, firmware, native library, and Python wheel must share major.minor
bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install hailo-all
sudo reboot

# After reboot
hailortcli fw-control identify
ls /dev/hailo0

# Docker

sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker

Run With Demo Video

bash
sudo docker run --rm --privileged --net=host \
  -e PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 \
  --device /dev/hailo0:/dev/hailo0 \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:/usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:ro \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so:/usr/lib/libhailort.so:ro \
  ghcr.io/seeed-projects/recomputer-r20-cv/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2:latest \
  python web_detection.py --model_path model/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2.hef --video_path video/test.mp4

Open http://<R20_IP>:8000 to view the web preview. The image includes the module source, demo video, HailoRT Python wheel, and HEF files listed below.

The libhailort.so bind mounts intentionally come from the host. If your firmware is not 4.23.0, replace both paths with the version reported by hailortcli fw-control identify; rebuild the image if the major.minor version differs.

USB Camera Mode

bash
sudo docker run --rm --privileged --net=host \
  -e PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 \
  --device /dev/hailo0:/dev/hailo0 \
  --device /dev/video0:/dev/video0 \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:/usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:ro \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so:/usr/lib/libhailort.so:ro \
  ghcr.io/seeed-projects/recomputer-r20-cv/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2:latest \
  python web_detection.py --model_path model/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2.hef --camera_id 0

Switch HEF variants

Override the image default by passing a different --model_path:

bash
sudo docker run --rm --privileged --net=host \
  -e PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 \
  --device /dev/hailo0:/dev/hailo0 \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:/usr/lib/libhailort.so.4.23.0:ro \
  -v /usr/lib/libhailort.so:/usr/lib/libhailort.so:ro \
  ghcr.io/seeed-projects/recomputer-r20-cv/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2:latest \
  python web_detection.py --model_path model/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2_wo_dilation.hef --video_path video/test.mp4

REST API

Prediction endpoint:

text

Example image request:

bash
curl -X POST "http://<R20_IP>:8000/api/models/deeplab/predict" \
  -F "file=@test.jpg"

Common service endpoints:

Development Notes

  • Source module: src/rpi5_hailo8_deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2/
  • Dockerfile: docker/hailo8/deeplab_v3_mobilenet_v2.dockerfile
  • Main service: web_detection.py wraps HailoRT inference, post-processing, MJPEG preview, REST prediction, and offline video analysis.
  • When swapping in a custom HEF, keep the output layout compatible with the module post-processing code or update post_process_hailo().

Inputs and Outputs

Input: image, video, or USB camera frame. Output: semantic mask or overlay and annotated MJPEG preview.
