# Car Counting 🚗
This is a Python-based project that uses the YOLOv8 object detection model and the SORT (Simple Online and Realtime Tracking) algorithm to count vehicles in a video feed. 🎥
## Screensort 📸
## Features 🚀
- Real-time vehicle detection and counting 🔍
- Supports various vehicle types (cars, trucks, buses, motorbikes) 🚗🚌🏍️
- Utilizes a custom road mask to focus the detection on the desired region 🛣️
- Tracks individual vehicles across frames using the SORT algorithm 🔍🤖
## Tech used 💻
- Python 3.x
- OpenCV 🖥️
- Ultralytics YOLO 🤖
- SORT (Simple Online and Realtime Tracking) 🔍
- cvzone 🎨
## How it Works 🤖
1. The code loads the YOLOv8 model and initializes the SORT tracker. 🔍
2. It then processes each frame of the video, detecting vehicles using the YOLOv8 model and vehicle types (cars, trucks, buses, bikes). 🚘
3. The detected vehicles are then passed to the SORT tracker, which keeps track of individual vehicles across frames. 🔍
4. The script draws bounding boxes around the detected vehicles, displays the vehicle IDs, and counts the number of unique vehicles that have passed through the linr🔢
## ⚙️ Installation
Follow these steps to run project :

cd Car_Counter
```
2. **Install dependencies** :
```bash
pip install requirements.txt
```
3. **Run the app**:
```bash
python CarCounter.py
```
