01 / OVERVIEW

Overview

OpenVINO.NET provides .NET interfaces and extensions around the OpenVINO inference toolkit. It helps C# applications load models, prepare inputs, and execute inference, with platform runtimes, OCR components, and YOLO examples.

02 / CAPABILITIES

Key capabilities

01

.NET interfaces for the OpenVINO C API

02

Platform runtime packages and device inference

03

OpenCvSharp extensions and PaddleOCR components

03 / POSSIBILITIES

Ideas to explore

  • Evaluate OpenVINO inference in .NET apps
  • Connect OpenCvSharp processing to model inference
  • Explore supported devices, platforms, and models

04 / GET STARTED

Getting started

Before you begin

  • A compatible .NET environment and matching native runtime
  • Supported models, devices, and drivers

Get the project

dotnet add package Sdcb.OpenVINO

Next steps

  1. Choose the core interface and matching platform runtime.
  2. Load a model using an example and validate your real device and inputs.
