Open Model Zoo Demos

Open Model Zoo demos are console applications that provide templates to help implement specific deep learning inference scenarios. These applications show how to preprocess and postrpocess data for model inference and organize processing pipelines. Some pipelines collect analysis data from several models being inferred simultaneously. For example, detecting a person in a video stream along with detecting the person's physical attributes, such as age, gender, and emotional state.

Source code of the demos can be obtained from the Open Model Zoo GitHub repository.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/open_model_zoo.git

C++, C++ G-API and Python* versions are located in the cpp, cpp_gapi and python subdirectories respectively.

The Open Model Zoo includes the following demos:

Media Files Available for Demos

To run the demo applications, you can use videos from https://storage.openvinotoolkit.org/data/test_data/videos.

Demos that Support Pre-Trained Models

NOTE: OpenVINO™ Runtime HDDL plugin is available in proprietary distribution only.

You can download the Intel pre-trained models or public pre-trained models using the OpenVINO Model Downloader.

Build the Demo Applications

To build the demos, you need to source OpenVINO™ environment and get OpenCV. You can install the OpenVINO™ toolkit using the installation package for Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit or build the open-source version available in the OpenVINO GitHub repository using the build instructions. For the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit installed to the <INSTALL_DIR> directory on your machine, run the following commands to download prebuilt OpenCV and set environment variables before building the demos:

source <INSTALL_DIR>/setupvars.sh

NOTE: If you plan to use Python* demos only, you can install the OpenVINO Python* package.

pip install openvino

For the open-source version of OpenVINO, set the following variables:

  • OpenVINO_DIR pointing to a folder containing OpenVINOConfig.cmake
  • OpenCV_DIR pointing to OpenCV. The same OpenCV version should be used both for OpenVINO and demos build.

Alternatively, these values can be provided via command line while running cmake. See CMake search procedure. Also add paths to the built OpenVINO™ Runtime libraries to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux) or PATH (Windows) variable before building the demos.

Build the Demo Applications on Linux*

The officially supported Linux* build environment is the following:

  • Ubuntu* 18.04 LTS 64-bit or Ubuntu* 20.04 LTS 64-bit
  • GCC* 7.5.0 (for Ubuntu* 18.04) or GCC* 9.3.0 (for Ubuntu* 20.04)
  • CMake* version 3.10 or higher.

To build the demo applications for Linux, go to the directory with the build_demos.sh script and run it:

build_demos.sh

You can also build the demo applications manually:

  1. Navigate to a directory that you have write access to and create a demos build directory. This example uses a directory named build:
mkdir build
  1. Go to the created directory:
cd build
  1. Run CMake to generate the Make files for release or debug configuration:
  • For release configuration:
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release <open_model_zoo>/demos
  • For debug configuration:
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug <open_model_zoo>/demos
  1. Run cmake --build tool to build the demos:
cmake --build .

For the release configuration, the demo application binaries are in <path_to_build_directory>/intel64/Release/; for the debug configuration — in <path_to_build_directory>/intel64/Debug/.

Build the Demos Applications on Microsoft Windows* OS

The recommended Windows* build environment is the following:

  • Microsoft Windows* 10
  • Microsoft Visual Studio* 2019
  • CMake* version 3.14 or higher

To build the demo applications for Windows, go to the directory with the build_demos_msvc.bat batch file and run it:

build_demos_msvc.bat

By default, the script automatically detects the highest Microsoft Visual Studio version installed on the machine and uses it to create and build a solution for a demo code. Optionally, you can also specify the preferred Microsoft Visual Studio version to be used by the script. Supported version is: VS2019. For example, to build the demos using the Microsoft Visual Studio 2019, use the following command:

build_demos_msvc.bat VS2019

By default, the demo applications binaries are build into the C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Intel\OpenVINO\omz_demos_build\intel64\Release directory. The default build folder can be changed with -b option. For example, following command will build Open Model Zoo demos into c:\temp\omz-demos-build folder:

build_demos_msvc.bat -b c:\temp\omz-demos-build

You can also build a generated solution by yourself, for example, if you want to build binaries in Debug configuration. Run the appropriate version of the Microsoft Visual Studio and open the generated solution file from the C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Intel\OpenVINO\omz_demos_build\Demos.sln directory.

You can also build the demo applications using cmake --build tool:

  1. Navigate to a directory that you have write access to and create a demos build directory. This example uses a directory named build:
md build
  1. Go to the created directory:
cd build
  1. Run CMake to generate project files:
cmake -A x64 <open_model_zoo>/demos
  1. Run cmake --build tool to build the demos:
  • For release configuration
cmake --build . --config Release
  • For debug configuration:
cmake --build . --config Debug

Dependencies for Python* Demos

The dependencies for Python demos must be installed before running. It can be achieved with the following command:

python -mpip install --user -r <omz_dir>/demos/requirements.txt

Python* model API package

Python* ModelAPI is factored out as a sepparate package. Refer to the Python Model API documentation) to learn about its installation. At the same time demos can find this package on their own. It's not required to install ModelAPI for demos.

Build the Native Python* Extension Modules

Some of the Python demo applications require native Python extension modules to be built before they can be run. This requires you to have Python development files (headers and import libraries) installed. To build these modules, follow the instructions for building the demo applications above, but add -DENABLE_PYTHON=ON to either the cmake or the build_demos* command, depending on which you use. For example:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DENABLE_PYTHON=ON <open_model_zoo>/demos

Once the modules are built, add the demo build folder to the PYTHONPATH environment variable.

Build Specific Demos

To build specific demos, follow the instructions for building the demo applications above, but add --target <demo1> <demo2> ... to the cmake --build command or --target="<demo1> <demo2> ..." to the build_demos* command. Note, cmake --build tool supports multiple targets starting with version 3.15, with lower versions you can specify only one target.

For Linux*:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release <open_model_zoo>/demos
cmake --build . --target classification_demo segmentation_demo

or

build_demos.sh --target="classification_demo segmentation_demo"

For Microsoft Windows* OS:

cmake -A x64 <open_model_zoo>/demos
cmake --build . --config Release --target classification_demo segmentation_demo

or

build_demos_msvc.bat --target="classification_demo segmentation_demo"

Get Ready for Running the Demo Applications

Get Ready for Running the Demo Applications on Linux*

Before running compiled binary files, make sure your application can find the OpenVINO™ and OpenCV libraries. If you use a proprietary distribution to build demos, run the setupvars script to set all necessary environment variables:

source <INSTALL_DIR>/setupvars.sh

If you use your own OpenVINO™ and OpenCV binaries to build the demos please make sure you have added them to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

(Optional): The OpenVINO environment variables are removed when you close the shell. As an option, you can permanently set the environment variables as follows:

  1. Open the .bashrc file in <user_home_directory>:
vi <user_home_directory>/.bashrc
  1. Add this line to the end of the file:
source <INSTALL_DIR>/setupvars.sh
  1. Save and close the file: press the Esc key, type :wq and press the Enter key.
  2. To test your change, open a new terminal. You will see [setupvars.sh] OpenVINO environment initialized.

To run Python demo applications that require native Python extension modules, you must additionally set up the PYTHONPATH environment variable as follows, where <bin_dir> is the directory with the built demo applications:

export PYTHONPATH="<bin_dir>:$PYTHONPATH"

You are ready to run the demo applications. To learn about how to run a particular demo, read the demo documentation by clicking the demo name in the demo list above.

Get Ready for Running the Demo Applications on Windows*

Before running compiled binary files, make sure your application can find the OpenVINO™ and OpenCV libraries. Optionally, download the OpenCV community FFmpeg plugin using the downloader script in the OpenVINO package: <INSTALL_DIR>\extras\opencv\ffmpeg-download.ps1. If you use the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit distribution to build demos, run the setupvars script to set all necessary environment variables:

<INSTALL_DIR>\setupvars.bat

If you use your own OpenVINO™ and OpenCV binaries to build the demos please make sure you have added to the PATH environment variable.

To run Python demo applications that require native Python extension modules, you must additionally set up the PYTHONPATH environment variable as follows, where <bin_dir> is the directory with the built demo applications:

set PYTHONPATH=<bin_dir>;%PYTHONPATH%

To debug or run the demos on Windows in Microsoft Visual Studio, make sure you have properly configured Debugging environment settings for the Debug and Release configurations. Set correct paths to the OpenCV libraries, and debug and release versions of the OpenVINO™ libraries. For example, for the Debug configuration, go to the project's Configuration Properties to the Debugging category and set the PATH variable in the Environment field to the following:

PATH=<INSTALL_DIR>\runtime\bin\intel64\Debug;<INSTALL_DIR>\extras\opencv\bin;%PATH%

where <INSTALL_DIR> is the directory in which the OpenVINO toolkit is installed.

You are ready to run the demo applications. To learn about how to run a particular demo, read the demo documentation by clicking the demo name in the demos list above.
