VideoPipe is an open-source C++ framework designed for building modular video analysis pipelines that process and structure video data using computer vision models. It operates using a pipeline architecture where independent nodes can be combined flexibly to create customized workflows for tasks such as object detection, face recognition, and behavior analysis. The framework is designed to be lightweight and portable, with minimal dependencies compared to other video processing systems, making it easier to deploy across different environments. It supports multiple inference backends, including OpenCV DNN, TensorRT, PaddleInference, and ONNXRuntime, allowing developers to choose the most suitable runtime for their performance and hardware requirements. VideoPipe also supports various video input sources such as RTSP, RTMP, and local files, enabling it to handle real-time streaming and batch processing scenarios.
