Quick Start Guide

1
Install Dependencies
Set up your development environment with the required libraries and frameworks.
pip install opencv-python torch torchvision ultralytics pip install numpy matplotlib pillow requests
2
Load Pre-trained Models
Download and initialize YOLO models for object detection and lane detection.
from ultralytics import YOLO # Load YOLO v8 model model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') # or yolov8s.pt, yolov8m.pt, yolov8l.pt
3
Run Your First Detection
Process an image and visualize the detection results.
import cv2 # Load image image = cv2.imread('road_scene.jpg') # Run detection results = model(image) # Display results for result in results: annotated_image = result.plot() cv2.imshow('Detection Results', annotated_image) cv2.waitKey(0)
