# YOLO-V3 Object Tracker
This repository contains a Python script that implements object detection using YOLOv3 (You Only Look Once) and tracks the detected objects in real-time using a webcam or video stream.
## Requirements
- Python 3
- OpenCV (`pip install opencv-python`)
- NumPy (`pip install numpy`)
## Usage
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/skmirajulislam/YOLO-V3-Object-Tracker.git
- Navigate to the project directory:
cd YOLO-V3-Object-Tracker
- Run the Python script:
python object_tracker.py
Before running the script, make sure you have installed the required dependencies:
-
YOLOv3 weights and configuration files can be downloaded from here.
-
OpenCV: You can install it via pip:
-
NumPy: You can install it via pip:
-
Adjust the parameters as needed:
image_path
: Path to the image file if you want to perform object detection on an image.yolov3_weights
: Path to the YOLOv3 pre-trained weights file.yolov3_cfg
: Path to the YOLOv3 configuration file.min_confidence
: Minimum confidence threshold for detected objects.bbox_reduction_factor
: Adjusts the bounding box dimensions.
-
Press 'q' to quit the application.
