MediaPipe for Apple Silicon
Prebuilt Google MediaPipe packages for Apple Silicon (arm64).
To install the prebuilt packages, use the following command to install from PyPi. The package is called mediapipe-silicon but is a drop-in-replacement for the mediapipe package.
pip install mediapipe-silicon
As mentioned in cansik#1 maybe it is necessary to limit the protobuf version, because the most recent one is not compatible:
pip install "protobuf>=3.11,<4"To use mediapipe in a requirements.txt it is recommended to use the following structure. This will install either mediapipe or mediapipe-silicon.
mediapipe; platform_system != "Darwin" or platform.machine != "arm64"
mediapipe-silicon; platform_system == "Darwin" and platform.machine == "arm64"
protobuf>=3.11,<4
To build the libraries yourself, please first install the following dependencies and run the build script.
brew install wget cmake protobuf bazelisk opencv@3
brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies glog
./build-macos.sh
The pre-built wheel packages should be in the dist directory.
