How can I enable GPU for real time person detector?

Description

Please forgive my ignorance I am an absolute newbie, probably way over my head.
I am trying to build a fairly accurate person detector with the Jetson Nano (4G) using OpenCV with Python3 and Yolov3-tiny (live feed from 8MP Camera Module IMX219 Infrared).

I have it working but its far too slow for real time (I would hope for at least 15 frames per sec). I understand that one option is to employ the GPU, I have searched for an easy way to do this but the more I look the more complex it seems to be.
I would be very grateful if someone could put me on the right path?

What I understand is that I will have to reinstall OpenCV with Cuda enabled. Then I would have to, in the code, use an OpenCV function to assign tasks to the GPU then pipe the output back to the main body (CPU).
Sounds like building a space ship to mars may be easier :-)

Any link or advice would be enormously appreciated.

Cheers
Neil
