Python vs C++ for OpenVINO development

638 Views

HI,

Ignoring the basic differences between the two languages, for OpenVINO development is there any advantages of developing (say a face recognition) solution with one language over another?

Most of the samples and tutorials are for C++ (although I found this the other day: https://github.com/elenash/open_model_zoo/tree/es/add_face_recognition_demo/demos/python_demos which has the only face recognition demo I've got to work)

Will I find more support with C++ for example? Will Python based applications be slower?

Thanks,
Andrew
