大家好，我是小米。

最近 AI 大模型火得一塌糊涂，但说实话，在嵌入式场景里，跑个 YOLO 做目标检测才是真正的刚需——工业质检、缺陷检测、机器人视觉、智能安防……这些场景用不上 GPT，但非常需要一个能实时跑得动的目标检测模型。

RK3588 内置了 6TOPS 算力的 NPU，纸面参数很漂亮。但实际跑起来能跑多快？能同时跑几路？选什么模型最划算？

这篇文章，我用三块 RK3588 开发板、四个 YOLO 模型、跑了 200+ 组数据，给你一个可以直接抄的实战结论。

先放结论镇楼：

模型	输入尺寸	FPS（单路）	功耗(W)	推荐场景
YOLOv5n	640×640	52	3.8	多路并发，速度优先
YOLOv5s	640×640	42	4.2	实时单路，平衡之选
YOLOv8s	640×640	28	5.1	精度要求高的场景
YOLOv5m	640×640	15	6.3	精度优先，容忍低帧率

一、环境准备

1.1 硬件

• 开发板：RK3588 EVB（8GB RAM + 32GB eMMC）
• 摄像头：IMX415（4K） + USB webcam（备用）
• 电源：12V/3A 电源适配器
• 散热：主动散热风扇（必须，否则 NPU 会降频）

1.2 软件环境

# 操作系统
Ubuntu 22.04 Server (ARM64)

# 内核版本
uname -r
# 5.10.110

# RKNPU2 驱动和运行时（关键！）
# 下载地址：https://github.com/ai-rockchip/rknn-toolkit2
# 设备端只需要 rknnlite2，不需要完整的 toolkit

# PC 端（模型转换用）
pip install rknn-toolkit2==1.5.0

# 设备端（推理用）
pip install rknnlite2==1.5.0

# 其他依赖
pip install opencv-python numpy

1.3

模型转换（PC 端操作）

模型不能直接把 .pt 扔给 NPU，必须经过 PyTorch → ONNX → RKNN 两步转换：

第一步：PyTorch 导出 ONNX

# 克隆 YOLOv5 官方仓库
git clone https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5.git
cd yolov5
pip install -r requirements.txt

# 导出 ONNX（注意 opset 版本）
python export.py --weights yolov5s.pt --include onnx --opset 12 --simplify
# 生成 yolov5s.onnx

第二步：ONNX 转 RKNN（INT8 量化）

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# convert_rknn.py —— 在 PC 端运行（x86/x64）

from rknn.api import RKNN
import os

ONNX_MODEL = "./yolov5s.onnx"
RKNN_MODEL = "./yolov5s_rk3588.rknn"
DATASET_TXT = "./dataset.txt" # 量化校准图片列表

def convert():
 rknn = RKNN()

 # 配置量化参数
 rknn.config(
 mean_values=[[0, 0, 0]],
 std_values=[[255, 255, 255]],
 target_platform="rk3588",
 optimization_level=3,
 quantized_dtype="asymmetric_quantized-8", # 非对称 INT8
 quantized_algorithm="normal", # 量化算法
 single_core_mode=False # 启用多核
 )

 # 加载 ONNX 模型
 ret = rknn.load_onnx(ONNX_MODEL)
 if ret != 0:
 print(f"[错误] 加载 ONNX 失败: {ret}")
 return

 # 构建 RKNN 模型（含 INT8 量化）
 # dataset.txt 每行一张校准图片路径，推荐 100~500 张
 ret = rknn.build(do_quantization=True, dataset=DATASET_TXT)
 if ret != 0:
 print(f"[错误] 构建 RKNN 失败: {ret}")
 return

 # 导出 .rknn 文件
 ret = rknn.export_rknn(RKNN_MODEL)
 if ret != 0:
 print(f"[错误] 导出 RKNN 失败: {ret}")
 return

 # 打印模型信息
 rknn.init_runtime(target="rk3588") # 连接 RK3588 板子做精度分析
 rknn.eval_perf()
 rknn.release()

 print(f"[OK] 转换完成: {RKNN_MODEL}")
 print(f" 大小: {os.path.getsize(RKNN_MODEL) / 1024 / 1024:.2f} MB")

if __name__ == "__main__":
 convert()

dataset.txt 格式（校准图片列表）：

# 每行一张图片的绝对路径
/home/user/calibration/img_0001.jpg
/home/user/calibration/img_0002.jpg
/home/user/calibration/img_0003.jpg
...

⚠️ 重要提示： 校准数据集要用和实际场景相似的图片，不要用 coco 验证集里的猫猫狗狗去量化工业质检模型，精度会差很多。推荐从实际项目里随机抽 200 张。二、YOLOv5s 实战：单路检测
