+## Object Detection
+
+[`tensorrt_object_detection.py`](./tensorrt_object_detection.py) contains an implementation for a RunInference pipeline that performs object detection using [Tensorflow Object Detection's](https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/tf2_detection_zoo.md) SSD MobileNet v2 320x320 architecture.
+
+The pipeline reads the images, performs basic preprocessing, passes them to the TensorRT implementation of RunInference, and then writes the predictions to a text file.
+
+### Dataset and model for image classification
+
+You will need to create or download images, and place them into your `IMAGES_DIR` directory. Popular dataset for such task is [COCO dataset](https://cocodataset.org/#home). COCO validation dataset can be obtained [here](http://images.cocodataset.org/zips/val2017.zip).
+- **Required**: A path to a file called `IMAGE_FILE_NAMES` that contains the absolute paths of each of the images in `IMAGES_DIR` on which you want to run image segmentation. Paths can be different types of URIs such as your local file system, a AWS S3 bucket or GCP Cloud Storage bucket. For example:
+```
+/absolute/path/to/000000000139.jpg
+/absolute/path/to/000000289594.jpg
+```
+- **Required**: A path to a file called `TRT_ENGINE` that contains the pre-built TensorRT engine from SSD MobileNet v2 320x320 model. You will need to [follow instructions](https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT/tree/main/samples/python/tensorflow_object_detection_api) on how to download and convert this SSD model into TensorRT engine. At [Create ONNX Graph](https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT/tree/main/samples/python/tensorflow_object_detection_api#create-onnx-graph) step, keep batch size at 1. As soon as you are done with [Build TensorRT Engine](https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT/tree/main/samples/python/tensorflow_object_detection_api#build-tensorrt-engine) step. You can use resulted engine as `TRT_ENGINE` input. In addition, make sure that environment you use for TensorRT engine creation is the same environment you use to run TensorRT inference. It is related not only to TensorRT version, but also to a specific GPU used. Read more about it [here](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/
 tensorrt/developer-guide/index.html#compatibility-serialized-engines).
+
+- **Required**: A path to a file called `OUTPUT`, to which the pipeline will write the predictions.
+- **Optional**: `IMAGES_DIR`, which is the path to the directory where images are stored. Not required if image names in the input file `IMAGE_FILE_NAMES` have absolute paths.
+
+### Running `tensorrt_object_detection.py`
+
+To run the image classification pipeline locally, use the following command:

Review Comment:
    @yeandy Thanks for this crystal clear explanation! In the end, I just want to make sure that whatever I do is compliant with your vision. From the high level looks good to me, [I added a small suggestion](https://github.com/azhurkevich/beam/pull/1#issuecomment-1201944306). We can merge after it is addressed. 
   I have diving deeper and figuring out GCP planned for this week. I am complete rookie so if you make any Dataflow suggestions, please be specific so that I can understand.
