Ok. This forum is for unraid users, please use the official project forum on github. By the way, yes, using frigate with a TPU still uses some CPU for ffmpeg decoding and movement detection.

okay, thanks !

Can you attach your docker settings? Can you see the tpu on unraid under tools>system devices>USB devices? You can find it as a Google Inc. device.

i feel stupid now.......... where can i see the docke settings and... where is this tools option ? on my debian machine ? sorry........😞

 

edit: this is my LSUSB, it shows Google, and Frigate says also it sees it. Maybe it is normal to get much higer processor times just because the camera's are also be seen /active in my Home Assistant (dashboard) and only the AI component of de images (looking for objects) is offloaded ? Would it be better to run the camera's on a dedicated NUC to not interere with Home Assistant?

thanks for checking, going to send it back, hope next oe works!

 

 

yes it was broken and replaced, now i got a active led and stick is found;

 

frigate.mqtt INFO : MQTT connected detector.

coral INFO : Starting detection process: 38

my config per camera looks like this;

 

  # Name of your camera

      track:
        - person
        - cat
    # Optional: save clips configuration

    height: 1944
    fps: 5

 

TPU part:

detectors:
  coral:
    type: edgetpu
    device: usb

 

I run Home Asistant on a Nuc with Intel I3, i was aspecting average load dropping with installing the Coral stick, it stays above quit high above 3.

Stopping Frigate drops load down to 0.3.... is there a way to check if offloading works as it should? or is my config not correct?

 

thanks agian!

Fyi I've got a usb coral plugged into the back of my HP server which I'm reasonably sure is USB2.0 and I do indeed get a LED lit with a frigate docker. 

 

My inference speed is around 37 in debug which i have no idea is good or not!

Gives me the impression it might not lit at all when not loaded/initialized. The Windows machine i have is my tool for work, so have to be carefull installing this just for testing. have to find me another to test it on Windows

 

installed de drivers on a Ubuntu (only USB2) also not detected, nothing in LSUSB.

 I think it is dead

The LED is on the translucid part of the coral. I only used it on USB 3 ports.

If you connect it to the PC it is solid blue.

 

You have to follow this steps (I think you only need to install the Windows drivers if you are going to use it natively as frigate docker it already comes with the drivers, but give a try):

Thanks! i could have thought of that (the datasheet) myself 🥴.

 

Anyway, reading this:

 

4.2 LED behavior
The USB Accelerator includes an LED that indicates the current system state. The following table describes the behavior of
the LED.
Table 2. USB Accelerator LED behavior and meaning
System state LED behavior
Edge TPU initialized - Edge TPU initialized On (solid)

Edge TPU running - Edge TPU running Pulse (breathe)

 

Gives me the impression it might not lit at all when not loaded/initialized. The Windows machine i have is my tool for work, so have to be carefull installing this just for testing. have to find me another to test it on Windows

Yes it has a Led. Are you using the original usb cable?

Okay! Where is it located and when does it lit? Always when connected to a USB (3.x) plug ? Or only when the drivers are loaded?. Yes i use the cable that did come with the package. Thanks!

If you don't even see an unknown device in Windows device manager, I'd assume the stick is dead.

thanks for the answer, does it not have a LED ? How big is the change to get a DOA  ?

Hello, i like to ask a question about the Coral USB, because the Frigate doc's send me here i give it a try. It might be a bit off-topic, hope you dont mind...

 

I bought a Coral USB to run Frigate on a NUC. Working toghetter with Home Assistant. I followed the instructions to set it up, log keeps telling me that the edgeTPU is not detected. Also do not see it with lsusb command (Linux Debian 10 / 64, USB 3 port). Plugged it into my Windows 10 and that also does not see a device. Is there a way to find out if the stick is healthy? There are no LED's or something ?

 

thanks!
