Target acquired: Automatically find targets in drone/quadcopter video streams
- itengelhardt 11y agoOMFG... Skynet. :-) Jokes aside: This is amazing. I guess finding the logo is easy compared to say a human face, but still. Thanks for the great article!
- zionsrogue 11y agoActually, finding human faces is a little bit easier (or at least comparable) to finding logos in images. The human face has a standard shape, whereas logos can be quite different shapes, sizes, and styles. The standard approaches to human face detection include Haar cascades, HOG + Linear SVM, and now we're even using deep learning. These techniques could also be applied to the drone video as well.
- boaticus 11y agoThis is great. Now I can build something to chase away boys that come by to pick up my daughter! The ultimate in Dad-tech.
