Training Your Own Neural Network¶
While it is possible to train custom object detection models, we don’t believe students should spend a single second labelling training data by drawing boxes around objects. We have set up all the infrastructure necessary quickly train new models for teams, including a cloud GPU cluster and a human data labelling team.
Classifier models, on the other hand, can be trained with Teachable Machine by Google. It’s as easy as dragging-and dropping images into your browser.

Training a Classifier¶
Navigate to https://teachablemachine.withgoogle.com/
Click “Getting Started” and “Standard image model”
Add as many classes as necessary, but remember to keep it simple.
Upload a broadly diverse set of images per class, click the “Train Model” button.
Test the model using your laptop’s webcam.
Once satisfied export the model as a Tensorflow Lite EdgeTPU Model.
Limelight OS 2023.1 will enable the “upload” button for custom models!
