Release Notes 5.6
This section lists the new functionality, improvements and some of the major changes related to DEEPCRAFT™ Studio.
New Features and Enhancements
Build Object Detection models in DEEPCRAFT™ Studio
You can now build object detection models within DEEPCRAFT™ Studio, starting from real-time data collection and labeling, all the way through to model training, evaluation and deployment.
- Bring your own image data in different label formats such as PASCAL VOC, COCO, and YOLO or collect and label images in real-time using the Studio. To know more, refer to Bring your own data for object detection projects and Real-Time Image data collection and labeling using camera .
- Train your object detection models using the lightweight and efficient YOLOv5n architectures. To know more, refer to Training Object Detection Model.
- Evaluate your models in real-time or leverage a variety of built-in evaluation techniques to evaluate model performance. To know more, refer to Evaluating Object Detection model.
- Generate code for your object detection models using ModusToolbox™ ML Configurator, refer to Code Generation for Vision Model
- Deploy the model using the PSOC™ Edge MCU: DEEPCRAFT™ deploy vision (opens in a new tab) Code Example in ModusToolbox™, refer to Deploy Vision Model on PSOC™ Edge boards.
We are actively working on adding code generation capabilities for object detection models in DEEPCRAFT™ Studio — stay tuned for this features in upcoming releases!
Real-time data streaming for PSOC™ Edge E84 AI Kit and PSOC™ Edge E84 Evaluation Kit
Flash PSOC™ Edge E84 AI Kit with the streaming firmware and stream real-time data from microphone, IMU, magnetometer, pressure-temperature, humidity-temperature and radar sensors into DEEPCRAFT™ Studio. You can collect data from multiple sensors on the kit at different rates concurrently. However, you must collect data from radar sensor independently, without concurrent data collection from any other sensors. Refer to Streaming Firmware for PSOC™ Edge E84 AI Kit and Real-Time Data Streaming with PSOC™ Edge E84 Artificial Intelligence Kit to know more.
Flash PSOC™ Edge E84 Evaluation Kit with the streaming firmware and stream real-time data from microphone, IMU and magnetometer into DEEPCRAFT™ Studio. You can collect data from multiple sensors on the kit at different rates concurrently. Refer to Streaming Firmware for PSOC™ Edge E84 Evaluation Kit and Real-Time Data Streaming with PSOC™ Edge E84 Evaluation Kit to know more.
ModusToolbox™ Integration
We provide a bidirectional integration between DEEPCRAFT™ Studio and ModusToolbox™ that enables an end‑to‑end workflow for PSOC™ Edge boards. The integration offers creation of ModusToolbox™ project from DEEPCRAFT™ Studio, transfer generated code from DEEPCRAFT™ Studio to ModusToolbox™ project for seamless deployment, and open DEEPCRAFT™ Studio projects directly from ModusToolbox™. Refer to ModusToolbox™ Integration to know more.
Advanced optimization for PSOC™ Edge M55+U55
DEEPCRAFT™ Studio provides some advanced optimization settings that are part of the Vela compiler to generate optimizations for code targeting the Ethos-U55 NPU. These options reduce scratch memory usage with minimal to no impact on model accuracy. Refer to Advanced optimization for PSOC™ Edge M55+U55 to know more.
Download DEEPCRAFT™ Studio from ModusToolbox™ and IDC Launcher
You can now install DEEPCRAFT™ Studio from ModusToolbox™ Setup (opens in a new tab) and Infineon Developer Center Launcher (opens in a new tab).
