COVID-19: Face Mask Detector with Open CV and CNN Algorithm
Now a day, covering our faces with a mask has become a new normal habit in this pandemic, as face masks are effective in preventing the virus outbreak. Masks reduce risk from an infected person whether they have symptoms or not. In this paper, we propose a system that restrict the growth of COVID-19 by finding out peoples with mask and without mask. Where all the public places are monitored with CCTV cameras. A deep learning architecture is trained on a dataset which consists of images of people with wearing mask and without wearing is masks collected from various sources. By using image processing analysis and machine learning method we can find out face mask wearied or not. Face mask detection can be done using various methods. Mainly convolutional neural network and OpenCV method is used. The accuracy and decision making of CNN algorithm is higher than other algorithms.
