Social Distance Detector with Python, YOLOv4, Darknet, and OpenCV

#artificialintelligence

As the spread of COVID 19 continues, communities are told to reduce close contact between individuals. This is called Social Distancing, as it is a necessary and effective way to slow down the spread of the virus. As a data science student, I came with a solution to identify whether people actually follow the social distancing protocol of staying at least 6 feet from each other. YOLO stands for You Only Look Once. It's a fast operating object detection system that can recognize various object types in a single frame more precisely than other detection systems.
