Shoplifting_detection 🕵️‍♂️

📝Description

A shoplifting detection system is a technological solution that uses various methods, such as computer vision, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, to identify instances of shoplifting or theft within a retail or commercial environment. The primary goal of such a system is to prevent theft, protect merchandise, and enhance the overall security of a store or business.

🌱Pre-requisites

import cv2
import numpy
import time

🪜Steps to be followed

* Import the files mentioned above.
* Provide the path of the video in which theft is to be detected.
* Then provide proper properties for the frame of the video and then write the code to create the output video detecting shoplifting.
* We will then further provide the parameters for motion and shoplifting detection.
* For proper motion detection we also need to convert the frame to grauscale.
* Then code to draw the bounding box, perform shoplifting analysis and check for shoplifting frames buffer.
* After all the analysis is done write the video in the same path mentioned above for the output and then release the captured video.

Result

This project is going to help the marts and shop owners to save their places from such kind of thefts.
