Accelerating the deployment of PPE detection solution to comply with safety guidelines
Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as face covers (face mask), hand covers (gloves), and head covers (helmet) are essential for many businesses. For example, helmets are required at construction sites for employee safety, and gloves and face masks are required in the restaurant industry for hygienic operations. In the current COVID-19 pandemic environment, PPE compliance […]
Training and deploying models using TensorFlow 2 with the Object Detection API on Amazon SageMaker
With the rapid growth of object detection techniques, several frameworks with packaged pre-trained models have been developed to provide users easy access to transfer learning. For example, GluonCV, Detectron2, and the TensorFlow Object Detection API are three popular computer vision frameworks with pre-trained models. In this post, we use Amazon SageMaker to build, train, and […]
