UltimateALPR on the Banana PI (Amlogic A311D)

[GELIOS team]

Hello.

Can you tell me if there is an UltimateALPR build that works with the NPU on the Banana PI board (Amlogic A311D), similar to Khadas? Or what SDKs should I install?

I can't run it directly, and it gives me the following errors:

But this is the same chip. UltimateALPR is not working with it?

[Mamadou DIOP]

Checked your logs again, looks like the npu is correctly recognized and supported. The issue may be OS version issue, read https://github.com/DoubangoTelecom/ultimateALPR-SDK/blob/master/AmlogicNPU.md#Operating-system

We'll most likely completely remove support Amlogic NPU support in v4. Their documentation is a mess and make it hard to maintain
