Requirements and Dependencies

Jetson TX2 just flashed with JetPack 3.1

Notes:

• Installation is similar to Jetson TX1 and you can follow this video tutorial.
• If you are installing from a virtual machine host, installation may need to be done in two steps, please refer to this solution.
• Be sure to complete both OS flashing and CUDA / cuDNN installation parts before installation.

Dependencies:

- OpenCV (all 2.X and 3.X versions are compatible).
- Caffe and all its dependencies.
- The demo and tutorials additionally use GFlags.

Installation

Use the following script for installation of both caffe and OpenPose:

./3rdparty/ubuntu/install_caffe_and_openpose_JetsonTX2_JetPack3.1.sh

Usage

It is for now recommended to use an external camera with the demo. To get to decent FPS you need to lower the net resolution:

./build/openpose/openpose.bin -camera_resolution 640x480 -net_resolution 128x96

To activate hand or face resolution please complete this command with the following options (warning, both simultaneously will cause out of memory error):

--hand -hand_net_resolution 256x256
--face -face_net_resolution 256x256
