Facial Recognition:

A deep learning facial recognition system called the "DeepFace" has been developed by a group of researchers in the Facebook, which identifies human faces in a digital image very effectively. Googleuses its own facial recognition system in Google Photos, which automatically segregates all the photos based on the person in the image. There are various components involved in Facial Recognition like the eyes, nose, mouth and the eyebrows.

People Counting:

Object detection can be also used for people counting, it is used for analyzing store performance orcrowd statistics during festivals. These tend to be more difficult as people move out of the frame quickly.It is a very important application, as during crowd gathering this feature can be used for multiple purposes.

Industrial Quality Check:

Object detection is also used in industrial processes to identify products. Finding a specific object through visual inspection is a basic task that is involved in multiple industrial processes like sorting, inventory management, machining, quality management, packaging etc. Inventory management can be very tricky as items are hard to track in real time. Automatic object counting and localization allows improving inventory accuracy.

Self Driving Cars:

Self-driving cars are the Future, there's no doubt in that. But the working behind it is very tricky as it combines a variety of techniques to perceive their surroundings, including radar, laser light, GPS, odometry, and computer vision.Advanced control systems interpret sensory information to identify appropriate navigation paths, as well as obstacles and once the image sensor detects any sign of a living being in its path, it automatically stops. This happens at a very fast rate and is a big step towards Driverless Cars.

Security:

Object Detection plays a very important role in Security. Be it face ID of Apple or the retina scan used in all the sci-fi movies.It is also used by the government to access the security feed and match it with their existing database to find any criminals or to detect the robbers' vehicle.The applications are limitless.
