Abstract : Object detection has revolutionized industries like manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation by enabling automated object identification and classification in images and videos. This paper explores cutting-edge architectures like YOLOv3, YOLOv4 and YOLOv8, highlighting their remarkable strides in accuracy, speed, and robustness. YOLOv8, with its balanced performance and ease of implementation, has emerged as a leading architecture. However, practical challenges like overfitting, data collection difficulties, model complexity, and high hardware demands can hinder its real-world adoption. This paper investigates prominent toolboxes like MMDetection and Detectron2 to address these challenges. Detectron2 provides optimization techniques and hardware acceleration strategies to tackle model complexity and hardware demands. The paper also explores deploying YOLOv8 on Streamlit/Flask platforms, offering a user-friendly interface for interacting with the model and visualizing its detections, facilitating integration into web applications. Strategies for overcoming deployment challenges and achieving optimal performance are also discussed. Looking ahead, the paper investigates data-driven pipe detection and classification for enhanced inventory management. This promising approach utilizes computer vision algorithms to automate pipe identification and categorization, potentially revolutionizing inventory management practices and streamlining operations. By addressing YOLOv8 implementation challenges and exploring promising future directions, this paper contributes to the advancement of object detection technologies and their transformative impact across various industries.
