Object Detection Benchmark

This script can be used to an Object Detector like Tensorflow-Lite (Coral), CoreML (Mac and Apple Silicon), and OpenVINO (Intel).

Reference Times

Below are benchark times that can be expected from various servers.

Server	yolov9t	yolov9c
Apple Silicon M1 Ultra	5 seconds	7 seconds
NVIDIA 4090	7 seconds	13 seconds
Intel 125H	10 seconds	19 seconds
Intel 13500H	10 seconds	43 seconds
2 x Mini PCIe Coral	19 seconds?	N/A
Intel N100	25 seconds	152 seconds
1 x Mini PCIe Coral	21 seconds	21 seconds
1 x USB Coral	20 seconds	Model Too Large

Script

This script will run 250 iterations of 8 detections at a time (to test concurrency and batching). The test includes the time it takes to upload the input image to the object detection processor.
