Object Detection
Also known as: Object Recognition
A computer vision technique that identifies and locates specific objects within images or video frames, typically by drawing bounding boxes around detected items and classifying them. In video accessibility, object detection enables automatic identification of video elements such as speakers, presentation screens, overlays, text, and auxiliary graphics, which can then be selectively shown, hidden, or modified based on viewer preferences. Modern object detection models like YOLO can operate in near real-time, enabling interactive video customization.
