Circular Object Detection and Counting System

Problem Definition

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: One of the challenges in industries is accurately counting and detecting circular objects in images, especially when they vary in size and color. Traditional methods of manual counting are time-consuming and prone to errors. This can lead to inefficiencies in production processes and quality control. Using the Circular Object detection and Counter project, we aim to address the problem of accurately and efficiently counting circular objects in images based on color, shape, and size using MATLAB. By leveraging image processing techniques, we can automate the counting process and improve accuracy in identifying similar objects with different colors and sizes.

This will not only save time but also increase productivity and ensure consistency in quality control measures.
