Hardware Setup

This is project is designed so that training takes place on a laptop/desktop computer and the remainder will be deployed to a recording device.

Training Device

The cheapest laptop that can be found at any big box store should be more than powerful enough for our needs. Training speed /may/ be increased with a cuda-compatible device, but will ultimately provide identical results.

Recording Device

Any modern single-board computer should be sufficient. The analytics and audio processing is relatively light. It is recommended to use a high-quality USB flash drive in addition to an SD card in order to support HD/4K video capture.

The hardware pictured below includes:

  • Raspberry Pi 5 8GB (Basic Kit) + Recommended OS: Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64-bit)

  • SanDisk 128GB High Endurance Video MicroSDXC Card

  • Angetube USB Microphone (w/ Gain Control)

  • ELP 4K HDMI USB Camera Wide Angle PC Camera

  • SanDisk 512GB Ultra Fit USB 3.2 Flash Drive (400MB/s) [not required]
