Setup TensorFlow with GPU acceleration using Windows, Docker and WSL2
“Docker is the easiest way to run TensorFlow on a GPU…”
One of the fastest ways to get started with TensorFlow and Keras on your local developer machine is using Docker. This is especially useful if you are working on a Windows machine with an NVIDIA GPU to speed up model training and inference. I have put together the following detailed setup guide to help you get up and running more quickly.

CamKnows™ 1.0 for the Raspberry Pi is now available on GitHub.
I have owned a smart doorbell for several years now, and I can’t imagine life without it. The benefits of smart cameras and doorbells are numerous. I can instantly know who is at my front door or when a package is delivered. There are, however, some drawbacks to any camera-equipped smart device.

Save Machine Learning models, time, and energy (and maybe even the planet)
I’ve noticed when going through lengthy ML tutorials for Keras and TensorFlow that I often run the same models repeatedly in Jupyter Notebook, regardless of the fact they have no changes. This is natural for me with a notebook with multiple models. I also find that typing the code into a new notebook, rather than just clicking Shift + Enter, aids my understanding and retention of what I have learned.
How to Install OpenCV for Python on a Raspberry Pi
Computer Vision isn’t just for GPU-powered desktops. Using OpenCV and Python on a Raspberry Pi equipped with a Camera Module, you can program and deploy amazing solutions including motion detection.
As I discovered personally, installing the correct libraries for OpenCV and Python for this task can be challenging. Here are the steps I used to get it working.
