Rock, Paper, Scissors on ESP-EYE using ESP-IDF, TfLite Micro, FreeRTOS

In this project we develop a model capable of discrimination between rock, paper and scissors visual inputs. We provide a full pipeline starting with data collection, data augmentation, model training, model quantization and miniaturization to the deployment on a camera enabled microcontroller. Each component can act independently and comes with a separate README.md file for explanation. The components live under src. Here we continue to list general software requirements for the entire pipeline.

Requirements

Python, model development

Python

Install Python. Version 3.10 is tested.

Libraries option 1) pip, no virtual environment

This is the easy option; packages are installed globally.

Install packages

pip install -r requirements.txt

Libraries option 2) Poetry

Install Poetry. Poetry manages packages and virtual environments for Python.

# installation on linux
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/python-poetry/poetry/master/get-poetry.py | python -
# activate poetry now
source $HOME/.poetry/env

Install packages.

poetry install

Enable virtual environment. Always necessary before invoking python from the shell, when using the poetry installation.

poetry shell

Exit virtual environment

exit

Embedded C/C++, model deployment

Espressif IDF

Version 4.4 is tested. Install via VSCode > Extensions > ESP-IDF > Express installation with all defaults. At the end of the installation a command is shown. This command should be executed to grant complete permissions.

Libraries

Next, download dependencies for the embedded system.

chmod +x src/tinyml_deployment/update_components.sh
./src/tinyml_deployment/update_components.sh

Respect the pipeline requirements

  1. Data must be present in the /data directory in order to start training.
  2. Preprocessing may be necessary.
  3. A model must be trained and stored in /bin_model.
  4. The model must be converted to a C array and included in the embedded code.

Running

In order to train a model, convert it and flash to the MCU use the following script.

chmod +x src/pipeline.sh
    ./src/pipeline.sh

Data collection

For example, convert video footage to images, see src/data_collection.

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf fps=30 out%d.png

Python, model development

Listed are the essential steps in the pipeline. See local documentation for details.

Preprocessing

Starting from 600x600 color images and the following file structure. For each of the preprocessing steps update name of raw_images in source code if necessary.

data/
    raw_images/
        rock/
            rock1.png
            ...
        paper/
            ...
        scissors/
            ...

Number of images in each folder should be equal.

python src/data_preprocessing/balance_classes.py

Reduce image size to 96x96 and convert to grayscale.

python src/data_preprocessing/preprocess.py

Split images into train and test sets.

python src/data_preprocessing/split_data.py

Train a model

python3 src/keras_model/main.py
# model saved to /bin_model

Convert model

From TensorFlow format to TensorFlow lite.

python3 src/tf_lite_model/convert_to_tflite.py

From TensorFlow lite to C array.

chmod +x src/tf_lite_model/tflite_to_c_array.sh
./src/tf_lite_model/tflite_to_c_array.sh

Copy C array to embedded C/C++ code.

python3 src/tf_lite_model/model_to_mcu.py

Embedded C/C++, model deployment

Compile model and flash to device.

cd src/tinyml_deployment && get_idf && idf.py build && idf.py -p /dev/ttyUSB0 flash monitor
