About DEEPCRAFT™ Starter Models


DEEPCRAFT™ Starter Models are open-source and include the datasets, preprocessing, model architecture and instructions that developers need to turn them into production-ready Edge AI models. Starter Models cover a wide variety of use cases and sensors, and are ready to be refined and trained based on your needs. The purpose is to inspire developers and to help kick-start your Edge AI journey.

If you have DEEPCRAFT™ Studio installed, you already have access to DEEPCRAFT™ Starter Models. Studio comes with 3000 minutes of compute per month and is free for development, evaluation and testing, so there's nothing to hold you back from getting started now!

Available Starter Models:

For Microphones

Baby Cry detection (mic)

This machine learning project contains everything you need to develop and deploy your very own baby cry detection model. Bundled with the project is an already trained model, and instructions for how to deploy it on the Infineon PSOC™ 6, which is ideally suitable for consumer applications.

Gunshot detection (mic)

This Starter Model detects gunshots in a noisy environment. The model includes strong invariance to many different background noises, and has around one hour of microphone data. A limitation with this model is difficulty in testing.


Chainsaw detection (mic)

This Starter Model classifies if there is a chainsaw actively cutting material in the vicinity. Chainsaws that are stalling are defined as not cutting. A fully developed model based on this Starter Model could be used to detect illegal logging or to create automatic warning systems.

Home Sounds detection (mic)

This Starter Model is capable of detecting a number of audio signatures common to a home setting. It currently has three labels; 'cough', 'baby cry', and 'water tap'. This Starter Model can easily be modified to add more labels. This contains 550 minutes of data, most of which is unlabeled background noise. 

Drill material detection (mic)

This Starter Model is capable of classifying the material a power drill is drilling into based on the audio signature. It is designed to be incorporated into smart power tools. It is developed as a proof of concept and is not fully optimized, achieving around a 85% plastic/wood accuracy. It differentiates between wood, plastic and air. 

Siren detection (mic)

This machine learning project contains everything you need to develop and deploy your very own siren detection model. Bundled with the project is an already trained model, and instructions for how to deploy it to the Infineon AURIX™ TC375 Lite Kit Board and KITA2G Audio Shield Board, which is ideally suitable for automotive and industrial applications.

Keyword Spotter (mic)

This machine learning project contains everything to get started with keyword detection. Bundled with the project is a trained model, the Google Speech commands dataset, and the guide for how to download and prepare the dataset. You also get some hints on how to take the model to production.


For IMU

Fall detection (IMU)

This Starter Model allows you to build models to detect a fall using an IMU (accelerometer and gyroscope) mounted on the buckle of a belt. For that, this Starter Model uses data collected from two different IMUs: a Bosh IMU and an STMicroelectronics IMU. Both sensors are set up to collect data at 50 Hz using a +- 8g for the accelerometer scale and +- 500 dps for the gyro scale.


Human Activity detection (IMU)

This Starter Model allows you to build a human activity detector that can be used on any supported Infineon MCU (or other MCUs) with a BMI160 IMU or another IMU. You can use this project as a starting point to develop a production-ready model intended for deployment in wrist-worn wearables. 


Drill material detection (IMU)

This Starter Model is capable of classifying the material a power drill is drilling into based on the IMU (6 axis accelerometer and gyroscope) signature. It is designed to be incorporated into smart power tools. It differentiates between wood, plastic and air.


Fan anomaly detection (IMU)

This Starter Model aims to provide general guidance on how to develop an anomaly detection system for detecting anomalous behavior in machinery based on vibration measurements. This project will monitor a simple desktop fan, but the same concept and workflow can be easily ported to any other machinery, whether industrial or consumer.

For Capacitive Sensor

Touch detection (CAPSENSE™)

This Starter Model allows you to build a touch detection model that can be used on any supported Infineon MCU with CAPSENSE™. This Starter Model gives you the infrastructure you need to expand on the project or to mimic it and create your own project based on the available/included data and tools.

Looking for a finished edge AI model instead?


Want to skip the machine learning development altogether? Our machine learning engineers have made DEEPCRAFT™ Ready Models for you! These are off-the-shelf, fully-developed AI models ready for you to deploy in your products. 

We are continuously releasing new DEEPCRAFT™ Ready Models, with various sensors and uses. Our Ready Models are based on:
- Audio: for detecting specific sounds
- Radar: for detecting presence, objects or materials
- IMU/Accelerometer: for detecting the motion of humans such as falling or vibrations in a machine

DEEPCRAFT™ Ready Models are:
