Azure Percept: Sample solution - People Count deployment error

Question

We are trying to deploy the people counting solution from Azure Percept Studio.

However when using the "Deploy to Azure" functionality for that solution we get an error on the AzurePerceptDeployment step.

Most of the errors are due to version mismatch of supporting packages.
E.g:
ERROR: azure-cli 2.9.1 has requirement azure-mgmt-iothub~=0.12.0, but you'll have azure-mgmt-iothub 0.8.2 which is incompatible.
ERROR: docker-compose 1.29.1 has requirement docker[ssh]>=5, but you'll have docker 3.7.3 which is incompatible.

We have our Azure Percept device updated to latest software version 2022.101.112.106. Are there any additional updates required on the device end to make the sample solution work?

Hello @Tina Jain ,
I'm sorry that you run into this issue. From the Github note below, the reference solution from Azure Percept Studio is currently under a major update in order to simplify the deployment process and to fix some bugs.

Link: https://github.com/microsoft/Azure-Percept-Reference-Solutions/tree/main/people-detection-app

However, you can try the People Counting sample solution from this tutorial instead. This should work without errors.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further question.

Thanks!
