Webcam YOLOv8 Person Scanner
Personal project for using a phone or webcam to detect a person and notify via a sound and log screenshots in the root folder.
- Download and install Git https://git-scm.com/downloads/win
- Clone this repository using
git clone https://github.com/LindezaBlue/Webcam-YOLO-Scanner.git - Make sure you have a webcam enabled and running!!
- Open the file "Start Scanning.bat"
Tip
The program will automatically install all needed dependencies and check for updates in order to run. If it worked correctly you will see a bounding box around the objects detected. (Example below)
When a person is detected an alarm sound will play and the person on the preview window will be surounded with a red border.
Note
Updates and changes will be made as I work on it, please feel free to let me know of any issues or changes that should be made. I am new to programming and can use any feedback. Thank you!~
- Add the ability to scan a specified window to detect a person for non-webcam feeds (ie. for a security camera that can be view from a computer but is not recognized as a webcam)
- Add automatic log creattion for error reporting using the "traceback logs" folder.
- Add a menu bar at the top of the preview window to allow the user to exit the program, and change the method of video feed capture.
- Optimize the startup process to not auto-reinstall dependancies when they are already installed on the system.
