Has anybody tried to port NXP VIT to Torizon OS? Are there any base docker images with VIT libraries preinstalled? Any hints?
Greetings @dionisisl,
As of this moment there hasn’t been any significant efforts to bring NXP VIT to Torizon OS. There hasn’t been significant work or research into this technology from our side yet.
Is this required for some project/product you are planning?
If you don’t mind could you share more about your use-case. For example what kind of product you would be interested to use VIT for and what hardware you are thinking of using.

im mainly exploring Torizon OS capabilities and how well it avails NXP hardware/software features

I still assume you’re interested in NXP VIT specifically though correct?
Our team is limited in resources. Meaning we often have to prioritize what features to invest time into. Frankly speaking, you’re one of the first users on this forum to even mention NXP VIT. Therefore if you do have interest in this for a product of some kind it’s important to let us know.
Though it’s not a guarantee that we will invest resources into this, it’s still useful for us to know, even as a statistic.

yes I am interested in NXP VIT. Im trying to evaluate its performance so im looking for a way to test it. Looks like Torizon its not an option. I reverted to the yocto multimedia reference image for verdin imx8m plus, looks like that the needed libraries arent there either. Is VIT at all available in any of your BSPs?

Not that I’m aware of. Again we haven’t invested any resources or time into this feature from NXP. Your post here is the first notable request for this feature that I know of. So we haven’t had much of an incentive to look into it beforehand.
If you want to test this in the short-term I imagine manual integration will be needed. Though we’re not at all familiar with this feature. Therefore, it’s hard to comment on the effort required.
On a quick search I can see there is a recipe in meta-freescale related to VIT: meta-freescale/recipes-multimedia/nxp-afe/nxp-afe-voiceseeker_git.bb at master · Freescale/meta-freescale · GitHub
But, looking a the commit history this was only added within the last month. Furthermore the recipe is only on the master branch. It’s not even on the Scarthgap branch which is the version of Yocto we currently build. Which makes me have some doubts about out-of-the-box compatibility.

assuming i want to try the manual integration, where do i find the needed files (e.g. libvoicespot.so)

Well this is a little odd. I tried to find libvoicespot.so but was unable to. I found this commit suggesting it used to be found here: LF-11879: Split VoiceSpot to another repo · nxp-imx/imx-voiceui@2e3d9ef · GitHub
But there’s no information on where they moved VoiceSpot to exactly. Perhaps asking NXP themselves would provide information.

thank you, will do. In the meantime do you have any other wake word/voice commands detection engine compatible with verdin 8m plus?

I’m not aware of other voice detection frameworks that are being used. It’s not the most common topic among our customers so it does not get discussed often.
I would rely on NXP’s recommendations since I assume they’ve done more testing on what their SoCs are capable of.
