Use Python to demonstrate Ultralytics: Oriented Bounding Boxes Object Detection effects on images, videos, and real-time detection.
1. Model Introduction
Oriented bounding box object detection, also called oriented object detection, goes a step further than standard object detection by introducing an additional angle to more accurately locate objects in images.
The output of an oriented object detector is a set of rotated bounding boxes that precisely surround objects in images, along with class labels and confidence scores for each bounding box. Oriented bounding boxes are particularly useful when objects appear at different angles, for example in aerial images, where traditional axis-aligned bounding boxes might contain unnecessary background.
Simply put, oriented object detection can use tilted boxes to precisely surround tilted objects, thereby reducing unnecessary background areas and improving detection accuracy.
2. Oriented Bounding Box Object Detection: Images
Use yolo26n-obb_ncnn_model to predict images in the ultralytics26 folder (not images that come with ultralytics).
Enter the code folder:
cd /home/sunrise/ultralytics26/yahboom_demo
Run the code:
xxxxxxxxxxpython3 05.obb_image.py
