Intelligent Real-Time Face Mask and Temperature Recognition Using Deep Learning on Raspberry Pi

Abstract

There has been a steady and significant growth of the advancement in computer vision systems for face masks and temperature tracking. The World Health Organization introduce strict measures to prevent the spread of the coronavirus disease. This paper attempts to create a highly accurate and real-time approach that can effectively detect non-mask trying to enforce to wear mask in order to contribute to community health. For the purpose of detecting face masks, a hybrid model combining deep and regular machine learning will be utilized. We will use OpenCV to recognize faces in real time from a live feed via the Camera module using a dataset that includes images with and without masks and send the data to the cloud for visualization and further analysis. As a main part of the solution, we proposed embedded system with tools utilizing Python, OpenCV, and Tensor Flow with using computer vision and deep learning. To make it cost efficient, quick, scalable, and effective the whole process for detection of face mask is carried out on Raspberry Pi. This project enables improved control over the information already provided and strongly points out the deployment of our method to stop the local transmission from spreading and decrease the possibility of human coronavirus disease carriers.
