AIM OF THE PROJECT

TO DEVELOP A WEB API FOR e-CHALLAN SYSTEM WHICH WOULD INFLICT A

PENALTY ON DEFAULTERS NOT FOLLOWING COVID PROTOCOL OF WEARING
FACE MASK IN PUBLIC PLACES

1. INTRODUCTION

The Face Mask Detection Will work in 2 Separate phases:

 IN THE FIRST PHASE, we will load face mask dataset, then train face mask classifier
with keras which then serializes face mask classifier to disk.
 IN THE SECOND PHASE, the face mask classifiers loaded from the disk which is then
used to detect faces in images, or in real time from which each face is extracted and face
mask classifier is applied to each face to determine Individual with or Without Mask.
Web API Phase:
A Custom Web API which would inflict penalty on defaulters not wearing face masks is created
through which a user can pay and view their challan with a proof. This API is developed over a
MERN Stack which would use a public data to search for specific details such as email ID ,
Phone number, address of the defaulter.

2. SOFTWARE(S) USED
 Python- Programming Language used for Deep learning algorithm
 OpenCV - OpenCV is the huge open-source library for the computer vision, machine
learning, and image processing.
 Keras – Keras is an Open-Source neural-network API written in Python.
 MERN Stack
 MongoDB or MySQL as DataBase
 Express.JS to design API
 ReactJS as our frontend framework
 NodeJS as our Backend Runtime Environment
3. HARDWARE USED
 CPU- Intel Core i7-7700HQ Kaby Lake Architecture @2.80Ghz
 GPU- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
4GB GDDR5 with 768 NVIDIA CUDA Cores @Boost Clock 1400Mhz
 RAM- 8GB DDR4 RAM with Clock Frequency @ 1200Mhz
 HDD- 1TeraByte

4. EXPECTED OUTCOME

 The Program Would be able to identify and segregate individuals not wearing masks
from the mass or in public places.

 We Can expect an error with a Scope of 5 out of 100 Individuals being falsely detected,
though this could improve with time as the program trains itself further reducing scope
of error up to 1 out of 100.

 Further, The WebAPI would notify the defaulter for violating COVID norms and
protocols. The defaulter then can login on the website and pay their dues through a
payment gateway.

5. APPLICATIONS

 Replace Personnel/Policemen which are deployed for the purpose of detection of

individual without masks, reducing the exposure of COVID 19 for these Personnel’s.

 Can be used at automated gates to grant entry to individuals, wearing masks at

Supermarket, Restaurants etc.

 The Technology can be reciprocated to surveillance camera’s at public places to fine

recurring defaulters.
6. CHALLENGES

 Accessibility to large databases, for accurate detection.

 Probability of error to detect face masks with different colors and patterns.

 Face too obscured by mask, leading to failure in face detection resulting in overall error.

 Database management is complex with database as big as population of India, thus in

some cases it could result in ambiguities and errors.
