PyPI Python License

pip install acmenra-cv

📦 Overview

acmenra-cv is a high-performance, type-safe computer vision library engineered for real-time applications on resource-constrained embedded systems (Raspberry Pi 5, Jetson, NPU, etc.). Built following Clean Architecture principles, it provides five cohesive modules:

Module Purpose Key Features
instance Spatial primitives for detection outputs Normalized coordinates, strict validation, immutable transformations
inference Backend-agnostic result container Collection-like API, timing metrics, JSON serialization
tracker Multi-object tracking with trajectories Persistent IDs, configurable history, backend-agnostic design
render Type-safe visualization layer Alpha-blended overlays, embedded optimizations, graceful degradation
utils Foundational CV helpers Grid-sampled illumination estimation, adaptive preprocessing

All spatial components operate in normalized coordinate space [0.0, 1.0] by default, ensuring resolution independence across varying camera inputs. The inference module stores absolute integer dimensions to serve as the ground truth for coordinate denormalization.


✨ Key Features

🔹 Unified Architecture

  • Strict type & range validation ([0.0, 1.0] with safe() clamping factory)
  • Seamless YOLO integration (boxes, masks.xyn, obb.xywhr)
  • Immutable geometric transformations (scale, translate, smooth)
  • Full type safety with IDE autocomplete and consistent API across all primitives

🔹 Backend-Agnostic Results

  • Universal Result container with collection-like API (len(), iteration, indexing)
  • Execution timing metrics with partial measurement support (None for unprofiled stages)
  • Absolute pixel dimensions (width, height, depth as int) for accurate denormalization
  • Full JSON serialization (to_dict/from_dict) optimized for Outbox persistence

🔹 Embedded-Ready Performance

  • Zero-crash OpenCV integration with @validate_frame decorator
  • Global show=False toggle to bypass all rendering for headless/embedded deployments
  • Memory-efficient trajectory queues with O(1) average calculation
  • Grid-sampled utilities delivering 10-50× speedup on resource-constrained devices

🔹 ADAS & Safety-Critical Design

  • Trajectory history management for zone crossing and collision detection
  • Temporal metadata (TimedPoint) for velocity/direction estimation
  • Configurable thresholds (conf, iou, max_length) for dynamic adaptation
  • Graceful degradation on invalid inputs — no exceptions, just safe fallbacks

from ultralytics import YOLO
from enum import Enum

# 1. Define your categories
class CocoClass(Enum):
    PERSON = 0
    CAR = 2

# 2. Initialize components
model = YOLO("yolov8n.pt")

# Backend-agnostic inference engine
backend = YOLOBackend(
    model=model,
    device=DeviceType.CPU,
    category=CocoClass,
    task_type=TaskType.DETECT,
    threshold=0.5,
    iou=0.7,
    imgsz=640,
    half=False,

# Visualization styling
style = Style(
    palette=[(255, 0, 0), (0, 255, 0), (0, 0, 255)],
    font=Font(color=(255, 255, 255)),
    stroke=Stroke(thickness=2, segment=0.1, alpha=0.8),
    fill=Fill(alpha=0.3),
    show=True
)

# Tracker receives the backend, decoupling inference from tracking logic
tracker = Tracker(
    id=0,
    backend=backend,
    max_length=50
)

drawer = Drawer(style=style)

# 3. Process a frame
frame = ...  # Your BGR frame (numpy array)
tracked_objects = tracker.track(frame, enable_tracking=True)

# 4. Create Result container (optional, for serialization/analytics)
timing = Timing(preprocess=1.5, prediction=15.2, postprocess=2.1)
result = Result(
    instances=[obj.instance for obj in tracked_objects],
    timing=timing,
    width=frame.shape[1],
    height=frame.shape[0],
    depth=1,
    device=DeviceType.CPU,
    category=CocoClass
)

# 5. Render results
output = drawer.draw_instances(
    frame=frame,
    tracked_objects=tracked_objects,
    is_box=True,
    is_trajectory=True
)

# 6. Use Result collection-like API
print(f"Detected {len(result)} objects")
for instance in result:
    print(f"  - {instance.label.name}: {instance.conf:.2f}")

# 7. Serialize for Outbox/Analytics
result_dict = result.to_dict()
# ... send to backend or save to disk

# 8. Use spatial data for business logic
for obj in tracked_objects:
    if obj.trajectory.count >= 5:
        # speed = estimate_speed(obj.trajectory)  # Your logic
        if obj.instance.label == CocoClass.CAR: # and speed > threshold:
            pass # trigger_alert(obj)
