Object Detection

📄️ Understanding Automatic Weapon Detection

Many regions have a high rate of crime caused by weapons, especially in areas where they are permitted. As a result when crimes are committed, elements involved become evidence which needs to be gathered. Often this evidence is digital, which includes elements such as CCTV recordings. With ever increasing crime rates, organizations feel the need to automatically detect the presence of dangerous weapons such as pistols, rifles, shotguns, etc. in surveillance videos to increase the searchability of weapons within a video, which appears at different time stamps. With better detection capabilities, criminal activity can be stopped in its tracks before much harm is done.
