Using VPS as extension to home intranet v1

Using Wireguard show how VPS hardware can be used as an extension to your homelab. I am not interested in exposing services to the internet from the VPS. It is not intended to be a way for a user to VPN into the homelab from the internet.

Refer to the diagram at: https://i.imgur.com/n5elXC4.png
Server = a host inside your homelab (assume it is NOT a router already).
VPS = external cloud host.
Assume Ubuntu 18.04 LTS for all hosts involved.
Should be able to scale this easily. So if I had numerous VPSs, I could link them (mesh?)
I don't know much about OpenVPN, but that may be more suited to the goal. You tell me.

Step 1: Installing CUDA (~5.5 minutes)

You can also install CUDA directly from the offline installer, but this is a little easier.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y

mkdir install ; cd install
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu1804.pin

Convert PascalVOC Annotations to YOLO

This script reads PascalVOC xml files, and converts them to YOLO txt files.

Note: This script was written and tested on Ubuntu. YMMV on other OS's.

Disclaimer: This code is a modified version of Joseph Redmon's voc_label.py

Instructions:

Place the convert_voc_to_yolo.py file into your data folder.

The code for this tutorial is here

Opencv provides are useful, but limited, method of building a GUI. A much more complete system could be acheived using pyqt. The question is, how do we display images. There are quite a few possible routes but perhaps the easiest is to use QLabel since it has a setPixmap function. Below is some code that creates two labels. It then creates a grey pixmap and displays it one of the labels. code: staticLabel1.py

from PyQt5.QtGui import QPixmap, QColor

	--echo Just echo received responses and exit.
