Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when you need hardware-oriented reference code and build guidance to evaluate or adapt a vision algorithm for an AXERA chip.

Who it is for

  • Developers evaluating or adapting computer-vision algorithms for AXERA AI SoCs.
  • Teams building edge-vision demonstrations on a listed AXERA-supported chip or development board.

Documented uses

  • Review example implementations for image classification, object detection or pose estimation.
  • Compile sample code using the repository's CMake build guidance.
  • Find linked model and test-image resources for an evaluation workflow.
  • Consult inference timing examples when assessing models on AXERA hardware.
  • Adapt traditional computer-vision operations to an AXERA SoC.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and displays a BSD-3-Clause license.

  • The examples target AXERA AI SoCs; check the listed chip families and boards against your hardware.
  • The repository's build guidance uses CMake for cross-platform compilation.
  • Benchmark timing is described as measured on an AXera-Pi Pro, so it is tied to that stated setup.
  • Pulsar2 toolchain documentation and downloads are linked separately from the sample code.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Build AX-Samples using the CMake compilation guide

Prepare a cross-platform build of AX-Samples for an AXERA chip family listed by the project.

Before you start

  • An AXERA-supported chip or development board; the README lists supported chip families and several boards.
  • Access to the repository’s CMake-based quick compilation guide.

Steps

  1. Open the repository’s quick compilation guide at docs/compile.md.

  2. Follow that guide’s CMake build instructions for the target platform.

Expected outcome

A CMake-based build attempt following the project’s quick compilation instructions.

Guide limitations

  • The README links to the detailed build guide but does not include its commands or prerequisites here.
  • The listed build-status table covers AX650/AX8850, AX637/AX8910, AX630C, AX620Q, and AX615; it does not document a build procedure for every chip named in the supported-chip list.
  • A successful build or on-device run is not established by these instructions.
