Over the past several weeks Paul DeCarlo and I have been working on a video series and example project with documentation on the Intelligent Edge. Where we worked on an Intelligent Video Analytics system using a $99 NVIDIA Jetson Nano.

There was so much we could do and quickly by just modifying JSON files. [Read More]
