Does OpenVINO support import/export feature with VPU?

[Roxy1]

Hello, I would like to know if the OpenVINO toolkit's VPU (Vision Processing Unit) supports the import/export feature. I know Feature Support Matrix and VPU devices support networks   page, but it doesn't list VPU on matrix. Could you please provide some information on this? 

However, If VPU does not support import/export. I was wondering if it is possible to perform import/export on CPU instead and then perform inference on VPU within the same application(one process). Could you please advise if this is possible or if there are any potential issues I should be aware of? Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Roxy1,

Yes, OpenVINO Toolkit's VPU (Vision Processing Unit) supports the import/export feature.

You can run the following Python codes:

from openvino.runtime import Core

core = Core()

info = core.get_property("MYRIAD", "IMPORT_EXPORT_SUPPORT")

print(info)

Regards,

Peh
