# Sample applications
Qualcomm Linux distribution provides sample AI/ML applications that demonstrate AI capabilities of the Qualcomm Linux platform.
**Workflow for using the sample applications**
The following AI sample applications are part of Qualcomm IM SDK.
Tip
For the complete list of supported sample applications, see
[Sample applications](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70020-50/example-applications.html)
in the Qualcomm IM SDK documentation.
## AI processing for object detection
The [gst-ai-object-detection](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70020-50/ai-ml-sample-applications.html#gst-ai-object-detection)
application demonstrates the capability of the hardware to perform object detection on input coming from the camera, file, or
real-time streaming protocol (RTSP) source.
## AI processing for multistream-inference
The [gst-ai-multistream-inference](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70020-50/multistream-inference.html)
application demonstrates the capability of the hardware to perform object detection or classification on multiple video streams from
the camera, file, or RTSP source.
## Parallel AI inference
The [gst-ai-parallel-inference](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70020-50/ai-ml-sample-applications.html#gst-ai-parallel-inference)
application demonstrates the capability of the hardware to perform four parallel AI inferencing
functions on input coming from the camera, file, or RTSP stream source.
## Daisychain of object detection and pose estimation
The [gst-ai-daisychain-detection-pose](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70020-50/daisy-chain-detection-and-pose-detection.html)
application demonstrates the capability of the hardware to perform daisychained object detection
and pose estimation on input coming from the camera, file, or RTSP source.
