Coral Dev Board - edgetpu_demo: command not found


Today I started to use my Coral Dev Board and followed these instructions. When I try to run the demo app with edgetpu_demo --stream, I get the following error message:

-bash: edgetpu_demo: command not found

Running a model using the PyCoral API works fine.

Is there a new command for the demo app or did I do something wrong?


Solution

  • The edgetpu_demo command does not work because the Edge TPU API is deprecated. The Get started with the Dev Board guide is out of date in this case because the necessary modules to execute edgetpu commands are not installed.

    Here you can find the packages that would have to be installed manually afterwards. However, these can no longer be installed from the official sources. Instead you could install the old packages from the archive.

    Note: The Edge TPU API has been replaced by the PyCoral API and should be preferred instead.
