- Learning the fundamentals of real-time object detection using the beginner-friendly YOLOv5 model in Python.
- Training on a small, well-documented dataset (e.g., COCO128) to detect simple everyday objects (like people, cars, or bottles).
- Running the model on a personal laptop or Raspberry Pi, focusing on understanding the full computer vision pipeline from data loading to detection.
- Exploring basic image annotation, model training, and inference steps using YOLOv5, and Google Colab.
- Goal: to build a working prototype that detects and labels objects in live webcam footage — with clear documentation and future plans for embedded use.
