birdfeeder.sh script doesn't run correctly

[aotmaie]

Description

I am trying to run the birdfeeder.sh script with all the directories correctly listed in the script, and whenever I do ./birdfeeder.sh to run the script in my command prompt it tries to run it but immediately pauses and doesn't complete the operation. I have to do Control + C to manually exit the process or else it never ends on its own. What is the issue with the script? Is there something wrong with the code I am using?

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I don't have the speaker connected to the board. Don't know if that would have an effect on the process, thought it would be useful to know.

Hi @aotmaie can you please test and confirm coral camera working as expected using "snapshot" command. Thanks!

[aotmaie]

@hjonnala , The camera is working correctly. Is there something else that is causing this issue?

[hjonnala]

@aotmaie We have tested with coral camera and it is working fine. Can you please try these steps and share the logs of all steps. Thanks!

git clone https://github.com/google-coral/project-birdfeeder.git
cd project-birdfeeder
sh install_requirements.sh
sh birdfeeder.sh

Hi,

This is the log of what happened. It still gives the same issue.

Also, when I tried running the "snapshot" command the coral camera doesn't do anything. I tried using a USB camera but that also is giving the same issue.

[hjonnala]

@aotmaie if snapshot is not working then there is some issue with coral camera. With USB camera please try sh birdfeeder_dev_board.sh script. Thanks!

[aotmaie]

@hjonnala , I just tried that and was trying to debug my code, but can't seem to find the issue. I am getting this error:

mendel@vexing-snail:~/project-birdfeeder-master$ sh birdfeeder_dev_board.sh
import is success
usage: bird_classify.py [-h] --model MODEL --labels LABELS
[--videosrc VIDEOSRC] [--top_k TOP_K]
[--threshold THRESHOLD] --storage STORAGE --sound
SOUND [--print PRINT] [--training]
bird_classify.py: error: unrecognized arguments: project-birdfeeder-master/project-birdfeeder/labels/imagenet_labels.txt

[aotmaie]

Is the error caused by the fact that I'm trying to run the program using a different camera?

[hjonnala]

@aotmaie If you are able to run other gstremaer exampels with usb camera then you would be able to this demo also. Please try the command below with project-birdfeeder as base directory.

python3 bird_classify.py \
	--model models/mobilenet_v2_1.0_224_quant_edgetpu.tflite \
	--labels labels/imagenet_labels.txt \
	--videosrc /dev/video1 \
	--storage sdcard_directory \
	--sound sound_file.wav \
	--print True

[aotmaie]

@hjonnala do you want me to change the paths to match the paths in the
image you sent above when I run the python3 bird_classify.py command?
