I will build realtime accident detection system
About this Gig
CrashVisionAI is an AI-powered computer vision system designed to detect vehicle accidents from traffic and CCTV footage using YOLOv8, OpenCV, and Flask. The system analyzes uploaded videos frame-by-frame, detects vehicles in real time, tracks their movement using BotSort tracking, and identifies possible collisions using custom motion analysis algorithms.
The project combines object detection, vehicle tracking, overlap analysis (IoU), speed estimation, and directional movement analysis to reduce false positives and improve accident detection accuracy. CrashVisionAI can classify accidents into LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH severity levels while also generating timestamps and confidence scores for each detected crash.
A modern Flask-based web interface allows users to upload traffic footage and instantly receive AI-generated crash analysis reports. The system also supports multiple crash detection within a single video and provides a professional dashboard for displaying results.
This project demonstrates practical applications of deep learning, computer vision, video analytics, and AI-powered automation for intelligent traffic monitoring systems.
