This is what I tried but I am just guessing.

def get_pipeline():
pipeline = dai.Pipeline()

    cam.setVideoSize(1920, 1080)
    cam.initialControl.setSceneMode(dai.CameraControl.SceneMode.FACE_PRIORITY)

    # Create MobileNet detection network
    mobilenet = pipeline.create(dai.node.MobileNetDetectionNetwork)
    mobilenet.setBlobPath(
        blobconverter.from_zoo(name="face-detection-retail-0004", shaves=3)
    )
    mobilenet.setConfidenceThreshold(0.7)

    #

    manipRgb = pipeline.createImageManip()
    rgbRr = dai.RotatedRect()
    rgbRr.center.x, rgbRr.center.y = cam.getPreviewWidth() // 2, cam.getPreviewHeight() // 2
    rgbRr.size.width, rgbRr.size.height = cam.getPreviewHeight(), cam.getPreviewWidth()
    rgbRr.angle = 90
    manipRgb.initialConfig.setCropRotatedRect(rgbRr, False)
    cam.preview.link(manipRgb.inputImage)


    #

    We're those guidelines for posting to the forum or submitting for review?
    We are using a UVC and I was trying to flip the image before output but I think it needs to be 1920,1080 so it is faulting.. Is it possible to rotate the image from a script?

    • erik replied to this.

      Some general feedback here would be great. I do not know enough to ask the right questions yet. We have a camera using UVC and face detection but it was longer than it was tall (1920, 1080) so we wanted to rotate the and camera and stream (1080,1920). When we rotate the camera, the face detection is not looking for the sideways faces so I need to flip the stream before it goes in to that I believe but not before the UVC input? :
      What is the max camRgb video size? We are using the OAK SOM.

      Hi chandrian ,
      For UVC, I believe the current limitation is that frames need to be 720P and in NV12 format, so you would likely need to rotate the image after retrieving it on the host, or use some other option (eg streaming via dephtai library, then creating virtual camera on the host). Would that work for your application?
      THanks, Erik

        erik

        Thanks erik you've been so helpful on this. I dont think we can flip it after the host has it... I think the idea was to rotate it so that it has more height to work with in the frame analyzing.

        What size is the image coming out?

        What does this crop do?:
        crop_manip = pipeline.create(dai.node.ImageManip)
        crop_manip.initialConfig.setResize(300, 300)
        crop_manip.initialConfig.setFrameType(dai.ImgFrame.Type.BGR888p)
        cam.isp.link(crop_manip.inputImage)
        crop_manip.out.link(mobilenet.input)

        I think the idea was to rotate it so that it has more height to work with in the frame analyzing.
        This was the wrong assumption above. I think I can just make the face-detection-crop more tall than long and I'll be ok. It is hard to follow the dimensions.

        Is it possible to crop into a different (smaller) size image for the face tracker? Where in the code does it need to be 1920x1080? before or after the script running?

        • erik replied to this.

          Hi chandrian ,

          1. The image should be full HD if you are using depthai with UVC pipeline (docs here).
          2. The code snippet resizes input frame to 300x300 and converts it to 8bit BGR format.
          3. Yep that should be possible🙂
          4. Can you please share what exactly you want to achieve?

          Thanks, Erik


          Thanks again for the response Erik. Basically we need to zoom in on the person like this and crop to this more vertical size.

          • erik replied to this.

            Hi chandrian ,
            with UVC mode this (currently) isn't possible, as UVC node needs full hd images. You could, however, stream exact same image but rotated by 90deg. Thoughts?
            Thanks, Erik

            Yes I attempted that but was not successful. Can you give me general instructions of where to implement that? The problems I faced were that the UVC needed 1920x1080 and when I rotated that, it was 1080x1920, and that the face recognition did not work when the camera was rotated 90 degrees.

            Thanks,
            Aaron

            • erik replied to this.

              Hi chandrian ,
              I assume you are using something similar to Lossless Zooming. So first you would want to rotate the frame 90deg (so people are upright), do the face detection, crop the original (rotated) 4k image into 1080x1920 (as in the lossless zooming example), then rotate that to 1080P, which you can feed into the UVC node. Thougths?
              Thanks ,Erik

              Ok so this wouldnt be in the script then. I realize script is mostly for changing the pipeline anyway. Yes that sounds like a plan for me. I will attempt and let you know. Thanks!!

              I will probably need to remove this before the rotate then? : cam.setVideoSize(1920, 1080)

              • erik replied to this.

                Hi chandrian , by default you will want to rotate the images by 90deg. So you will likely want 4k, then rotate it by 90deg, then do inference, then crop, then rotate back by -90deg to get to 1920x1080.

                Ok thanks! Is all of this happening in before the script node? Or is that unnecessary.

                And how does the script node work in terms of code path. I see a "while true" in the script with no breaks and a while true after the script. do they run in parallel?

                I tried keeping the same dimensions as my working code and just flipping twice and I didnt not get an output stream and then I tried a zero degree turn twice and still no stream. Am I messing something up here:
