Detectron2 is a powerful tool for recognizing and understanding things in pictures and videos. It's like a smart computer vision system created by Facebook AI Research. Detectron2 is an upgraded version of Detectron and maskrcnn-benchmark, and it's built from scratch using PyTorch. It helps with tasks like finding objects, drawing boundaries around them, and even figuring out the poses of people in images.
Detectron2 is designed to be flexible, meaning it can be adjusted and added onto easily. It's great for both doing experiments in computer vision research and making practical applications, like in Facebook's Portal video-calling devices. It's a handy tool that helps turn creative ideas into real-world solutions, making technology smarter and more useful for everyone.
