The objectives of the project include:
• Understanding the importance of social distancing during pandemic
• Detection of humans in the frame to compute distance between them.
• Implementation of social distancing detector with functions such as displaying the
human count, number of abnormal and serious violations in a video frame
• Incorporate real time email alert if the number of violations exceeds the threshold
limit.
• Simulation of social distancing detector using Google Colab.
