Face Mask Alert Detection System For Preventing the Spread of COVID-19

In this current COVID-19 scenario, an effective face mask detection application. The project's major purpose is to put this system in place at college entrances, airlines, hospitals, and offices where the risk of COVID-19 spreading through contagion is highest. According to reports, having a face mask while at work significantly minimizes the chance of transmission. It's an issue of object detection and classification with two classes (Mask and Without Mask). For recognizing face masks, a hybrid model combining deep and traditional machine learning will be shown. This face mask detector is built with Python, OpenCV, TensorFlow, and Keras and is based on a dataset. Everyone should inspect their face before entering the building and make sure they have a mask with them. A beep alert will be triggered if somebody is found without a face mask. As a result, all of the workplaces are reopening, the number of instances of COVID-19 being reported around the country is steadily rising. It can be brought to a close if everyone observes the safety precautions. As a result, we expect that this research will assist in detecting people wearing masks to work.
