+In addition to the above, the VSI Python scripts depend on `opencv-python` package. We recommend using
+a virtual environment and installing this with pip.

+### Working with Virtual Streaming Interface
+
+The object detection example for Arm Corstone-300 and Corstone-310 supports Virtual Streaming Interface (VSI).
+This allows the locally installed FVP application (or an AVH instance) to read images in from a camera connected to
+your local machine and stream these over to the application running within the FVP.
+
+To run the VSI application, append the command line with the v_path argument. For example:
+
+```shell
+  $ <path_to_installed_FVP> \
+    -a ./out/object-detection-vsi/AVH-SSE-300-U55/Release/object-detection-vsi.axf \
