I own an Intel Compute Stick 2 that I intend to use to process object detection networks.

After installing OpenVINO on my machine (Ubuntu 18.04), I tried running the object detection python demo on a video. When running it on the Intel stick, I would get a speed of around 7.5 frames per second, while running it on my laptop Intel CPU is a lot faster at 44 frames per second.

Even if my laptop is a decent gaming laptop, I was surprised by the fact that processing on the Intel stick is so much slower. I plan to use the Intel stick on another device, not my laptop, but I would like to understand why there is this big difference in performance. Anyone had a similar experience?

  • I actually just bought a OpenCV Camera OAK-D with Intel MyraidX, I ran my model on both the camera and CPU, the CPU is running much faster than the MyraidX even after optimized model(the .blob model) – Franva Aug 07 '21 at 14:42
  • That's exactly my experience as well – Otter_warrior Aug 08 '21 at 14:14

  • Thank you for your reply. Looking at the links you provided it makes sense, I guess I was expecting the NCS 2 to be faster than it actually is – Otter_warrior Jul 06 '21 at 17:01
