Classifier based Image Sorter This app can use an image classifier to detect any number of target labels, then sort those images into 1 of 2 folders.
Contraband Detector App This app uses object detection and employs a correlation tracker to monitor a frame for items deemed 'contraband'. For working or learning at home, these items may be headphones, cell phones, books, etc. We use two object detection models in order to maximize the number of objects we can detect given a set of freely available detection models. You can add or remove models and alter labels to suit your needs!

Face Swapper Swaps the faces of people in a video stream when more than one person is in the frame.
Facial Landmarks with DLIB Using DLIB to do facial detection and find landmarks.
Gesture Controlled Home Interaction App This app is designed to let you use your own custom gesture model to activate voice-activated technology, such as Alexa, Google Home, or Siri, using computer vision. After training your own gesture-detection model, using hand signals of your choice, you can use these signals to play audio files that give commands to smart tech.
Hacky Hour 08/06/2020 Source code for the August 6 2020 Hacky Hour! Demonstrates how a computer vision application can be used in manufacturing to confirm that a worker has chosen the correct component for assembly of a product. The CV application finds the roi associated with an illuminated LED on a tray shelve. It then checks to see if the workers hand has picked up the correct component using a hand detection model and overlapping rectangles algorithm between roi and hand detection bounding box. The bounding box of hand detector turns green when the correct component is chosen and remains red until that occurs.
Jumping Jacks Counter This app counts jumping jacks for a single person on a real-time video stream or a video file. The app defaults to the TensorRT engine on NVIDIA Jetson devices, and the DNN engine elsewhere.
Kalman Tracking Hacky Hour 05/12/2021 Source for the May 12th Hacky Hour! This app demonstrates how to use the Kalman Tracker to track objects in motion.
License Plate Tracker App This app uses object detection and employs a centroid tracker to monitor a frame for license plates and vehicles. Please note that the model used in this app does not detect the content or read the characters from a license plate. Pair this app with an OCR library to do so.
License Plate OCR App This app uses object detection and employs a centroid tracker to monitor a frame for license plates and vehicles and then uses an OCR library to read the license plates. This app will work on development machines, such as MacOS and Windows, but not on ARM 64 architectures due to the dependency on PyTorch. Note that we have provided the model file that EasyOCR provides at runtime to avoid model download issues. We have only provided the necessary files for the English option. If you would like to explore other uses of the EasyOCR library, please see the source: https://github.com/JaidedAI/EasyOCR/tree/393c2d966aa37160bcfdef5f55ba50daff994409. There is a link to the JaidedAI Model Hub on the repository's README.
Classifier based Image Sorter This app can use any number of image classifiers to detect any number of target labels, then sort those images into 1 of 2 folders if the target label is detected.
Multiple Object Detectors Sample App This app utilizes two object detection models, with the option of adding additional detection models. This may be helpful for including models that comprise very different libraries. In this example, one model detects numerous objects of small to medium size, and the other has a more limited library but detects some larger objects, such as airplanes, trains, and sofas. As there is some overlap between models, for instance they both detect people, you can compare the prediction confidences. Additionally, the output for each model appears in a separate video frame.
Object Detection Server/Client Server app sets up an alwaysAI model to run on a device where images can be sent and inferenced. The server then returns the marked-up image to the client, which is stored in the inferenced folder.
Object Detection & Classifier Sample App This app enables two alwaysAI models to be used simultaneously: one to detect facial objects, and a second to classify the detected faces in terms of age ranges.
Package Detection System App This app is designed to let you use your own custom package detection model to detect when packages arrive and when they are removed You'll need an alwaysAI account and to have alwayAI installed:
Pedestrian Segmentation This app expands on the semantic_segmentation_cityscape starter app to build an app that segments pedestrians and bicyclists in each frame of a video, and performs actions based on the results. The full tutorial can be found on the alwaysAI blog.
People Counter App This app expands on the alwaysAI face counter starter app to both count the number of non-unique people (same person will be counted multiple times if they exit and re-enter the frame) detected and to display basic time metrics on those appearances.

This tutorial will walk through training an SVM to classify a few common yoga poses.
Posture Corrector with Pose Estimation Example App This app uses pose estimation to help users correct their posture by alerting them with a sound when they are slouching, leaning, or tilting their head down, as well as a printed message with specific suggestions for correcting posture. A scale variable is used to adjust the keypoints measurements for different individuals, accounting for greater or smaller natural distances between keypoints used to detect poor posture.
QR Code Detector Use QR Code Detection to detect and decode QR Code(s) in a real-time camera stream.
Object Detector and RTSP Streamer Use Object Detection and RTSP Server to stream Object Detection Inference through RTSP stream. The types of objects detected can be changed by selecting different models.
Semantic Segmentation Cityscape Use Semantic Segmentation to determine a class for each pixel of an image. The classes of objects detected can be changed by selecting different models. This particular starter application uses a model trained on the Cityscapes Dataset. The Cityscapes Dataset focuses on semantic understanding of urban street scenes, and is a favorite dataset for building autonomous driving machine learning models.
Simple Object Counter Use Object Detection to count the number of each type of object in the frame of a real-time video stream.
