ML.NET Hackathon Idea - Face Mask detection

[Brett-Parker]

Hackathon Idea

Why not make it topical! Face mask camera detection which determines if the person in the image is following the current guidelines.

Brief Description

At the minute I'm thinking this will be a Blazor app that uses webcam input to determine whether you are wearing a mask or not. How possible is it in ML.NET? Who knows but were going to find out!

This is hardly a ground breaking idea but I don't think it's been done in ML .NET and it will make a great sample!

Love this idea!, might even try to do this before the hackathon as a personal challenge xD

I am going to be unable to complete this. I am currently moving house and commitments are going to make it difficult. I will try create an example in the future but not in time for the hackathon.

@Brett-Parker that's unfortunate you won't be able to join us 🙁. Would it be okay to leave this idea up in case anyone else wants to work on it?

[Brett-Parker]

@luisquintanilla most definitely. I will be at the event, just unfortunately inconsistently, so I wont be able to complete this :)

Perfect. Thanks!
