How to get started

[geannealva]

Hi @tomek-l ! I hope you could help me.

I am a graduating college student. I have a thesis about face mask detection and body temperature detection.. I am currently working on my model for the mask detection, however I really do not know how to get started with the temperature detection. I also have the same idea which is to detect the inner eye canthus for temperature measurement, (using haar as well?). I am also planning to buy the same materials. But I really don't know how the code works or how I will calibrate the cameras. I am still a beginner in machine learning with python because I studied on my own. I hope you could help me, I really want to learn. This is the only project I found helpful. Thank you so much! 😅

@geannealva I think I can help you since we have the same project as I posted in Issue#46. You can send me an email. Josebustamante2019@gmail.com

Hi @geannealva !

As much as I'd love to help, I probably don't have the throughput to do that :slightly_smiling_face: If you have specific questions, feel free to ask them here.

Referring to the question from the topic: "How to get started".

The starting point I'd recommend is to:

1. Buy the IR camera
2. Try running this script pt2_example.py. At Line 106 temp_map will be a numpy array in Celsius. Try measuring the temperature of objects in front of the IR camera.
3. Once you have IR and RGB cameras running, go to Getting started with cameras notebook and try combining IR and RGB footage.
