Prior to starting, make sure you have cmake installed.

  1. Clone the project - all other steps are to be performed inside the project directory.
git clone https://github.com/nihui/ncnn-webassembly-yolov5.git
cd ncnn-webassembly-yolov5

  1. Install emscripten
git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git
cd emsdk
./emsdk install 3.1.28
./emsdk activate 3.1.28

source emsdk_env.sh
  1. Download and extract ncnn webassembly package
cd .. #Return to the root folder
wget https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn/releases/download/20230223/ncnn-20230223-webassembly.zip
unzip ncnn-20230223-webassembly.zip
  1. Build four WASM feature variants
# The build folder is part of the bundle extracted in the previous step
cd build 
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake -DWASM_FEATURE=basic ..
make -j4
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake -DWASM_FEATURE=simd ..
make -j4
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake -DWASM_FEATURE=threads ..
make -j4
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake -DWASM_FEATURE=simd-threads ..
make -j4
  1. Deploy the *.data *.js *.wasm and *.html files to your web server

If you want to run this locally, create a folder named deploy in the root project directory and copy the following assets into it:

# deploy files
deploy/
├── index.html
├── yolov5-basic.data
├── yolov5-basic.js
├── yolov5-basic.wasm
├── yolov5-simd.data
├── yolov5-simd.js
├── yolov5-simd-threads.data
├── yolov5-simd-threads.js
├── yolov5-simd-threads.wasm
├── yolov5-simd-threads.worker.js

  1. Deploy local server(python3 as a example)
python3 -m http.server --directory deploy
  1. Access local server(chrome as a example)
# launch chrome browser, enter following command to address bar and press ENTER: 
chrome://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure

# enter following keyword to "Search flags" and press ENTER:
"insecure origins"
you will find "Insecure origins treated as secure" key

#enter local server url and click right side dropdown list, select "Enabled"
url example: http://192.168.1.100:8000

#relaunch chrome browser and access http://192.168.1.100:8000 (replace 192.168.1.100 with your local ip)
