 Materials and Methods

Our dataset includes helmets with various rotations, diverse

backgrounds, lighting conditions, and partially obscured faces.
Images were obtained from our recorded videos.

 Materials and Methods

Images were organized into two folders: one for helmets and the other
for non-helmets.

 Experimental Results
Performance of classifiers was evaluated using videos from various
scenarios.
Results include true positives and false positives for helmet and human
classifiers.

 Discussion

Tested OpenCV’s object detection with Haar cascades, yielding

positive outcomes.
Encountered challenges in detecting helmets (rotation, lighting, partial
obstruction).
Proposed solution: Improve detection by adjusting camera height.
Future research: Dive deeper into this solution for thorough
exploration.
