Object Recognition by webcam
A smart webcam in JavaScript with a pre-trained Machine Learning model.
Introduction
This repository contains the code useful to publish a web API to take advantage of the webcam to perform object recognition. The model is a pretrained model (coco-ssd) deployed in tensorflowjs.
The model
This model detects objects defined in the COCO dataset, which is a large-scale object detection, segmentation, and captioning dataset. You can find more information here. The model is capable of detecting $80$ classes of objects. (SSD stands for Single Shot MultiBox Detection).
