Custom ir-dataset Computer Vision Project

Here are a few use cases for this project:

1. Smart Surveillance: The "Custom ir-dataset" could be used in an advanced surveillance system where it identifies people in a strategic locations like supermarkets, airports, and other public places, thereby contributing to public safety.

2. Social Distancing Monitoring: In the Covid-19 era, this dataset could be used to develop a model to enforce social distancing rules by identifying the number of people and their distance from each other in a given space.

3. Occupancy Sensing: The model could be applied in smart building technology where it determines the number of occupants in a building, allowing for efficient energy use based on real-time occupancy data.

4. Interactive Advertising: Businesses could use it to understand consumer demographics and behaviors in physical stores by identifying customers, tracking their movements, and analyzing their interactions with different products.

5. Event Management: For managers of large events like concerts or conferences, using a model built on this dataset could facilitate headcount, crowd control and emergency responses by identifying people and their distribution in the venue.
