Tools
Warning
The AI Accelerator requires ROS 2 Humble, so PolyScope X 10.12.1 is the latest compatible release. PolyScope X 10.13 and later use ROS 2 Jazzy and are not currently supported.
This section contains tools and utilities for working with the AI Accelerator platform.
Note
Most tools below run inside the SDK Docker container. Complete the SDK setup first (cd ~/aia_sdk/ros then ./scripts/run_sdk_setup.sh).
Utility scripts run on the compute-box host (sanity check, camera path, time sync).
Prefer Auto Annotation for detection datasets. Manual Annotation is deprecated and kept only as a fallback.
