Tutorials

I’m going to start today’s blog post by asking a series of questions which will then be addressed later in the tutorial: What are image convolutions? What do they do? Why do we use them? How do we apply them?…

The purpose of this blog post is to demonstrate how to install the Keras library for deep learning. The installation procedure will show how to install Keras: With GPU support, so you can leverage your GPU, CUDA Toolkit, cuDNN, etc.,…

Alight, so you have the NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit and cuDNN library installed on your GPU-enabled system. What next? Let’s get OpenCV installed with CUDA support as well. While OpenCV itself doesn’t play a critical role in deep learning, it is…

If you’re serious about doing any type of deep learning, you should be utilizing your GPU rather than your CPU. And the more GPUs you have, the better off you are. If you already have an NVIDIA supported GPU, then…

Did you know that OpenCV can detect cat faces in images…right out-of-the-box with no extras? I didn’t either. But after Kendrick Tan broke the story, I had to check it out for myself…and do a little investigative work to see…

I said it in last week’s blog post and I’ll say it again here today — I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, a GUI developer. I think my aversion to GUI development started back in early-High school…

I’ll be honest with you. I’m not much of a GUI developer. Never was one, never will be. I enjoy creating the occasional user interface with HTML + CSS, or hacking up a WordPress plugin to make it more aesthetically…

Last week we learned a bit about Python virtual environments and how to access the RPi.GPIO and GPIO Zero libraries along with OpenCV. Today we are going to build on that knowledge and create an “alarm” that triggers both an…

I can’t believe this is the first time I am writing a blog post on GPIO and the Raspberry Pi. It’s a pretty big mistake on my part. I should have written this post much earlier. You see, on average,…
