Wastage of huge amounts of electricity remains an important concern worldwide. One of the main reasons that affects the amount of energy being wasted is nothing other than leaving unwanted electrical and electronic appliances working in unoccupied rooms or spaces. Using the knowledge of the fields of deep learning and computer vision, a model is being implemented which uses an object detection algorithm to check the status of the appliances and warns the user about energy waste by sending the information of appliance misuse to the concerned person. OpenCV library is used to observe and preprocess the data which the software obtains from the surroundings and then You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm is used to determine if there are any running appliances in the captured frame.

摘要

Wastage of huge amounts of electricity remains an important concern worldwide. One of the main reasons that affects the amount of energy being wasted is nothing other than leaving unwanted electrical and electronic appliances working in unoccupied rooms or spaces. Using the knowledge of the fields of deep learning and computer vision, a model is being implemented which uses an object detection algorithm to check the status of the appliances and warns the user about energy waste by sending the information of appliance misuse to the concerned person. OpenCV library is used to observe and preprocess the data which the software obtains from the surroundings and then You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm is used to determine if there are any running appliances in the captured frame.
