Object Counting using Ultralytics YOLOv8 | Episode 19

Join us in Episode 19 as we dive deep into object counting using the advanced Ultralytics YOLOv8 model! 🚀 In this video, we demonstrate how to create a powerful counting system with just a few lines of code. We'll guide you through the process of setting up object detection, tracking, and counting, all powered by the state-of-the-art YOLOv8 architecture.

🔍 Key Highlights:
- Object Counting Overview: Learn how to implement a counting system using Ultralytics YOLOv8.
- Documentation Walkthrough: Explore the detailed documentation to understand the code structure and its applications.
- Real-World Use Cases: Discover how object counting can optimize production lines, manage traffic, and more.
- Code Implementation: Step-by-step guide to setting up video capture and configuring the object counter.
- Live Demo: Watch a real-time demonstration of cars being detected, tracked, and counted in different lanes.

You're really great; I just did the same tracking a couple of days ago and wrote a massive amount of code.

[Smitthy-kd]

Totally pumped for this one! How does YOLOv8 handle counting objects in more complex scenes, like a busy street or a crowded stadium? Do you think it makes a lot of miscalculations in such scenarios?

[crclub]

I need idea for final year project, can you suggest some unique computer vision project and source code🙂

[MarceloCuin]

Congratulations on the beautiful project. One question: isn't the code detecting motorbikes and bicycles? Or maybe I don't know how to adjust it correctly. I will continue following your project. Hugs

Great video! I'm curious, how does YOLOv8 handle overlapping objects during counting, and are there any specific techniques or tweaks you recommend to improve accuracy in such scenarios?

[AshishTiwari-khtd]

Amazing Content Ultralytics. If i have 2 different regions in the same video and I have to maintain 2 counter for the vehicle count. What can I do for this?

[TheodoreBC]

Wow, object counting with YOLOv8 sounds rad! Any tips for getting it to work in real dense forests where critters are everywhere, bro? Wondering about accuracy in such a wild setting.

Hello Dear, i have a question,

is it possible count UNIQUE person with YOLOv8 ?

[AWLogz]

How can I access the data on the counted items? For example if I want to print the number of counted cars on the terminal. How can I extract that data into a variable? Thank you

[ibrahimsimsek]

Hello Dear,

How can i access or log print to in count&out count ? i want to get in count and out count variables, is it possible ?

thnxs your this video.

[RoyMathew-hg]

Hello Ultralytics. If I want to save the images of frame when a person going out and in . How can I do that. Like if the outcount is one an image of frame should be saved and when it's increments the images of the frame get saved like that.

[RoyMathew-hg]

How can i show count of each classes going in and out like people car etc and display it in the opencv window below the in and out count.

[MinEite-fbwz]

Thank you for your very quick response. Thanks to you, I was able to count. thank you. I'm sorry, but for some reason, the 6 types of count results overlap, making it very difficult to see. Sorry to bother you, but how can I separate them? Also, how can I change the class name? Thank you very much for your support.

Is there any way to count from the dashcam of a moving vehicle?
How to avoid duplicate counts, for example, in traffic where we might pass the same car twice because of speeding up or slowing down.
You guys are amazing btw!

[pan-integral]

How can I save the number of detected objects in a variable? I need to perform other tasks that depend on the count of detected objects, but as I analyzed, the object counting is done within the library

[rafaeldesantis]

The line crossing in scenarios where many people cross to both sides in and out, doesn’t work that well, for simple scenarios, work well, but if it’s more complex, doesn’t work that well. That’s my feedback, hope that helps !

[akhileshsharma]

I have custom trained a yolov8 model on 3 classes.How to count and display multiple classes and not their sum?

[salmabif]

How to used yolo8 to count objects in images?

[firebender]

i want to change/custom the text on the count (incout and outcount), should i edit the file object_counter.py? that means i must copy the github repo on my google collab right?

[Meloia]

Is this YOLOv8 groove ready to count objects in crowded samba parades or music festivals? 🎵 Any thoughts on handling complex overlapping objects in such vibrant scenarios?
