I tried coding a AI DEPTH VISION app with MIDAS in 15 Minutes

MiDaS was originally developed by researchers at Intel for Robust Monocular Depth Estimation...aka derving how far objects are using a single standard camera. We're going to try to build an OpenCV app with it using Python in just 15 minutes.

Good to be back to Code That!

Oh, and don't forget to connect with me!

Happy coding!

Oh man that was awesome. I'm always rooting for you to finish on time!

[Arvolve]

You nailed it indeed! Such amazing videos man, thanks a lot!

[yamani]

Please don’t put a timer on yourself or restrictions to what resources you can access. I literally feel the anxiety myself and lose focus. 😅

[FlickCliper]

I love the way you teach us about programming, I've watched your previous videos on facemask detection, can you possibly make a Python program that classifies rotting, discoloration, or cratering on celery stalks by image detection?

[Jaybaas]

With 2 minutes to spare!! 🔥👏🏾
You’ve got the Midas touch 👀😂

[agustinsaavedra]

Thank you for the example code with Midas.
Since I was using python 3.10 I also needed the timm library but by downloading the library with pip
"pip install timm"
I was able to use the cuda option instead of the cpu one.

[g.s.]

you should make more video on jetson nano using gpu.

Looks awesome, I always wanted to predict Depth!

[armanneyestani]

thanks, Nichols for the amazing video, My question is how we can use the Depth Map for visual odometry?

[TheGenerationGapPodcast]

I think you are more of a marketer than an ML engineer, LOL. Why? your use of a countdown clock: that is the gamification of marketing. We were all hoping that you make out alive. Clever, dude. Great video.

hello Nicholas. Your channel has helped me a lot in my problems. Thanks for sharing. Also please could you make a video to combine object detection with midas. This will be very helpful!

[reubenthomas]

Hey Nick, how do we extract the depth data from the output?

[snazalsingh]

What is the unit of the depth calcuakted here....

[heyricksander]

How do I get this to work with my macbook's web cam?

[faqugamer]

Is Midas able to produce true depth/hight maps that could be used with CnC 2.5d bas relief carving?

[homealone]

Wow technology keeps on evolving. Didn’t think it was even possible.

[MichaelChen-ww]

Hey could you explain how to download visual studio code on the jetson nano? What version did you use and how'd you get it on there?

[mr.sweaty]

I would really like a video where you take the some of the different NN models you've made (tweaked to the same data), put then through a ensemble to a .h5 file, then converted to protobuf and used in a c# script

[varunvijay]

Hello, Nicholas.
When I try to run the code the kernel fails. Would you please help me resolve this problem?

[atharvamadiwale]

Can this model be used to convert a 2D camera feed into 3D ? Wanted to implement a similar idea for a project..
