Low VRAM Settings about ros_openpose HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey @ravijo that helped a lot! The COCO model does use less memory and works well for me. Now I'm having an issue similar to Issue #4 , but I am going to keep working on it.

Thanks again!

Hi @rocketmax,

I am sorry to hear about the issue. As you said already, you are using a GTX 960M (2 GB) graphics card. It is evident from the following log message that you are running out of memory-

Check failed: error == cudaSuccess (2 vs. 0)  out of memory

This package, i.e. ros_openpose doesn't use GPU directly. However, it depends on OpenPose which uses GPU heavily.

Since the error is coming from OpenPose software, I suggest you run the openpose software on example data as shown below-

./build/examples/openpose/openpose.bin --video examples/media/video.avi

Now, please try to reduce the --net_resolution and give it a try with --model_pose COCO. Also, please make sure that cuDNN is installed correctly. You need to compile OpenPose with it.

I also suggest you read and try this documentation.

Let me know if this helps!
