A face mask detection system built with OpenCV and TensorFlow/Keras that uses deep learning (SSD MobileNetV2) to detect whether people are wearing masks in static images and real-time video streams. It was created during the COVID-19 pandemic as a computer vision demonstration project.

Use cases

• detect face masks in images
• real-time mask detection from webcam video stream
• train a mask detection model with TensorFlow and Keras
• build a COVID-19 safety screening system
• learn computer vision with OpenCV and deep learning
• detect faces and classify mask vs no-mask

When to choose

• you need a ready-made face mask detection demo in Python
• you want a learning project combining OpenCV, Keras, and MobileNetV2
• you need real-time mask detection from a video stream

When to avoid

• you need production-grade, actively maintained mask detection
• you need general face detection or recognition unrelated to masks
• you need a supported commercial screening solution
