Object detection using Yolo in Image, video, and webcam.
This is to detect objects in a video or by use of webcam using OpenCV, Yolo, and python
This is a program to detect objects in a video using YOLO algorithm This program is for object detection using YOLO.
Yolo is a deep learning algorithm that came out in May 2016 and it became quickly so popular because it’s so fast compared with the previous deep learning algorithm.
Opencv: also OpenCV has a deep learning framework that works with YOLO. Just make sure you have OpenCV 3.4.2 at least.
Advantage: it works without needing to install anything except OpenCV.
Disadvantage: it only works with CPU, so you can’t get really high speed to process videos in real-time
Developing Environment
Python
For downloading python just go to https://www.python.org/ and click download click or you can use this link this will download the latest version of python for you https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.2/python-3.8.2.exe
after that a .exe file will be downloaded just go through it and "eureka" you Python is installed
IDE
As a developer, I prefer any one of these IDE for the same Pycharm and Anaconda You can use any one of the same.
Pycharm
To install Pycharm
just go through this link and do the needful installation you can also refer to this video tutorial given below for reference
https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ Video reference
Anaconda
To install Anaconda
just go through this link and do the needful installation you can also refer to this video tutorial given below for reference https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/windows/
OpenCV
to install OpenCV just write the following commands in the cmd
run pip install opencv-python if you need only main modules. run pip install opencv-contrib-python if you need both main and contrib modules
(check extra modules listing from OpenCV documentation at https://docs.opencv.org/master/ )
You can also refer to this video link on how to install OpenCV in below given IDE's
For Pycharm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppnFp_RiE0A
For Anaconda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2ykss_4Af0
Resources
To learn more about these Resources you can Refer to some of these articles written by Me:-

#note:-
To download yolov3.weights go the drive link below
also if you want to use just webcam replce test.mp4 with 0 // fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*"XVID") // out = cv2.VideoWriter("the_new_video_is.avi", fourcc , 25, (852, 480))
Output
