Setup🔬 Project Overview
This project uses a custom-trained YOLOv8 model to detect and track rats in video streams, compute the distance traveled, and generate visual analytics such as path plots and heatmaps.
⚙️ Details
- Custom object detection using YOLOv8
- Real-time tracking with dynamic path drawing
- Post-processing: path plots and heatmaps from detection logs
- Real-world distance estimation
