Allxon provides essential remote device management solutions to simplify and optimize edge AI device operations. As an AI/IoT ecosystem enabler, connecting hardware (IHV), software (ISV), and service providers (SI/MSP), Allxon serves as the catalyst for fast, seamless connectivity across all systems.
Allxon Over-the-Air (OTA) deployment works perfectly with Edge Impulse OTA model update on Nvidia Jetson devices. This tutorial guides you through the steps to deploy a new impulse on multiple devices.
This guide demonstrates how to deploy and manage Edge Impulse models on NVIDIA Jetson devices using Allxon's Over-the-Air (OTA) deployment capabilities. Allxon provides essential remote device management solutions to streamline and optimize edge AI device operations.
Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
Updated impulse as a Docker container from Edge Impulse.
Get Allxon officially supported devices(https://www.allxon.com/).
Create an Allxon account.
Allxon's services are compatible with a variety of hardware models. Follow these steps to complete the required preparations.
Install Allxon Agent: Use the command prompt to install the Allxon Agent on your device.
Pair Your Device: Follow the instructions to add your device to Allxon Portal.
Once added, your devices will appear in the Allxon Portal for management and monitoring.
To perform an OTA deployment, ensure you have your updated Impulse deployed as a Docker container from Edge Impulse.
Generate OTA Artifact: Use the Allxon CLI to generate the OTA artifact.
Deploy OTA Artifact: Follow the Deploy OTA Artifact guide to complete the deployment.
Below are example scripts to help you set up the OTA deployment.
Two minor modifications have been made to the standard Docker command from Edge Impulse docker deploy:
The -it
option has been removed from the Docker command to avoid an error related to the lack of standard input during deployment. An &
has been added to the end of the Docker command to send the process to the background.
By following these steps, you can efficiently deploy and manage Edge Impulse models on NVIDIA Jetson devices using Docker through Allxon. This setup leverages Allxon's remote management capabilities to streamline the process of updating and maintaining your edge AI devices.
