Building a Car Counter with Python and OpenCV: A Beginner's Guide

In this beginner-friendly computer vision project, we'll set up a webcam, connect it to our desktop, and use object detection AI to track and count cars on the street. You'll learn how to use Python and OpenCV to detect objects in real-time, track them using their centroids, and finally, count the number of cars passing by. This tutorial is perfect for anyone interested in learning about computer vision and object detection AI, and it's a great starting point for building more advanced systems. Whether you're a hobbyist or a student, you'll find this tutorial easy to follow and highly informative. So grab your webcam and let's get started!
