Abstract:

Recent years have seen great achievements in the design of deep learning network structures and the construction of large benchmark datasets for object detection. However, it still remains a great challenge to achieve real-time performance when adapting to embedded systems with low computational ability. This paper proposes an embedded system for real-time 3D human detection. The system consists of a neural computing stick for the deploy of CNN, an intel RGBD sensor for the 3D sensing and a Raspberry Pi platform. Furthermore, a novel multi-thread based human detection framework is proposed to improve the detection speed. Experimental results show that the system can effectively detection human in real-time performance.
