Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM69A
Tool/software:
Dear TI Support Team,
We are working with the AM69A board and currently using SDK 9.2 for model deployment and real-time inference. Our goal is to run the PointPillars model on this platform. After research, we have encountered several uncertainties regarding the availability and compatibility of ONNX artifacts for PointPillars, and we would appreciate your clarification on the following points:
1. Availability of PointPillars Artifacts for SDK 9.2 and 10
We have only found a PointPillars ONNX artifact (3dod-7100_onnxrt_kitti_mmdet3d_lidar_point_pillars_10k_496x432_qat-p2_onnx.tar.gz) provided for release 9.0.
Despite reviewing the documentation and model zoo, we have not located updated artifacts for SDK 9.2 or SDK 101.
Question: Are there official PointPillars ONNX artifacts available for SDK 9.2 or SDK 10? If so, could you please point us to their location? Having these would help us verify our inference pipeline and ensure our deployment process is correct.
2. Plans for Future Artifact Releases
Question: If such artifacts are not currently available, does TI have a plan or timeline to release PointPillars artifacts compatible with SDK 9.2 or SDK 10 in the near future?
3. Issues with Artifact Generation from Custom Training
We have trained the PointPillars model using the configuration at:
github.com/.../tidl_hv_pointpillars_secfpn_6x8_160e_kitti-3d-car.py
However, we are unable to generate the necessary artifacts for deployment on the AM69A board.
Question: Are there any known issues or additional steps required to successfully generate artifacts for PointPillars under SDK 9.2 or SDK 10?
4. SDK Upgrade and Issue Resolution
Question: If we upgrade to SDK 10, will this resolve the artifact generation and deployment issues we are experiencing?
