Thanks for replying!

I am intended to ask, to use Open CV present in Open vino toolkit do i need to source something or export something. Do i need to use some command line arguments to make it start working? or it will start working just after environment initialization?

Actually i was implementing some codes in which Open CV is used, as in my RPI Open CV is already installed so i can not get which one is used.is it like connecting Open CV with IE?if yes then kindly guide me.

That is a good question, I believe you can still use your OpenCV code with your OpenVINO toolkit code and the other way around. As the article I linked on my previous reply, the only thing you need to do to use OpenVINO IE instead of pure OpenCV is to change cv2.dnn.DNN_BACKEND_OPENCV to cv2.dnn.DNN_BACKEND_INFERENCE_ENGINE in your code implementation. You can take a look at the repository here to get more information on how it works and how to use it.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I hope you have found this helpful.
