Run RF-DETR locally with OpenEye
Real-time detection transformer without NMS post-processing. End-to-end architecture for high-accuracy detection. OpenEye, the open-source perception CLI, downloads RF-DETR, runs it on your CPU or GPU, and returns structured JSON you can pipe into scripts, agents, and robots.
