Tutorial: Fine-tuning RF-DETR for drone detection 🔥 🔥 🔥 I’ve spent the last two weeks working on an end-to-end RF-DETR fine-tuning tutorial, and it’s finally here. You can use it to fine-tune RF-DETR on any dataset, not only drones. - Learn the COCO annotation format - Train RF-DETR in Google Colab - Adjust hyperparameters for optimal performance - Evaluate model accuracy - Save and deploy your trained model RF-DETR-N outperforms YOLO11-N by 10 mAP points on the COCO benchmark while also running faster at inference. RF-DETR is the top object detector on the RF100-VL benchmark, where RF-DETR-M beat YOLO11-M by an average of 5 mAP points across aerial datasets (drone, satellite, radar). Its mix of lightweight design, speed, and accuracy, combined with the open-source Apache 2.0 license, makes it an excellent choice for deployment on drones and other mobile devices. ⮑ 🔗 YouTube video: https://lnkd.in/dNKvYxDN Google Colab and the dataset I used are linked in the comments 👇🏻 #computervision #opensource #objectdetection #drones #transformers

I don't know about you, but it sure bugs me when my family comes in and out of the room, without closing my door 🫠 That's why I decided to build an automatic door closing tool with Roboflow! It uses an iOS app running a model detecting the state of my door, to relay events to an ESP32 board that activates a piston to close my door! Interested in learning more?

Manually entering shelf label information into a Point of Sale (POS) system to validate product prices can be time-consuming and error prone. Here's a blog: https://lnkd.in/dpdppBV8 I wrote that presents a workflow that enables store employees to simply take a photo of a shelf, after which the workflow automatically validates the shelf labels against the POS database on a server, streamlining the entire process. Check it out. I used Roboflow Workflows to build my solution, which essentially saved me a lot of hours by removing the need to rewrite logic for cropping and similar tasks.

What a superpower for XRAI HACKers to work with! Roboflow - World's largest collection of open-source CV datasets and APIs Here is a recap of what Nigel taught during our last 2 workshops, along with the first-ever Custom AI Model Training kit, which works both for Unity and Meta Quest Camera Access. I cannot wait to see unique #SensAI use cases and pre-trained models next week!
