Step-by-Step Guide to Implementing

Real-Time Object Detection Using


YOLOv8, DJI Tello, and Flutter
1. Training the Model on Roboflow
Step 1: Prepare the Dataset

- Collect and annotate your images.

- Upload the dataset to Roboflow.

Step 2: Train the Model

- Select YOLOv8 as the model architecture in Roboflow.

- Configure your training parameters (e.g., epochs, batch size).

- Train the model until you achieve satisfactory results.

Step 3: Export the Model

- Once training is complete, export the best.pt file (YOLOv8 PyTorch model) from Roboflow.

2. Setting Up the DJI Tello for Real-Time Video Capture


Step 4: Connect DJI Tello

- Set up the DJI Tello drone and connect it to your development environment (e.g., using
TelloPy or DJI SDK for Python).

- Ensure you can stream video from the Tello camera.

Step 5: Stream Video to Your Application

- Capture the video feed from the Tello camera and stream it to your local system or cloud
server.

3. Deploying the Model for Real-Time Detection


Step 6: Setup YOLOv8 Inference

- Install YOLOv8 on your local system or cloud server.


- Load the best.pt model using YOLOv8.

- Set up a script that takes input from the DJI Tello's video stream and performs real-time
inference.

4. Choosing the Right Cloud Database


Step 7: Select a Cloud Database

- Firebase Firestore: Real-time, NoSQL database with good Flutter integration. Suitable for
storing detection logs, user data, etc.

- Google Cloud Storage: For storing larger files, such as images or videos.

- Firebase Realtime Database: Alternative to Firestore, but less flexible for complex queries.

- AWS S3 + DynamoDB: Alternative to Firebase with similar features, but more


customizable and potentially more complex.

Step 8: Integrate with the Cloud

- Store your model outputs, detections, and other data in the chosen cloud database.

- Ensure data is synchronized in real-time with the mobile app.

5. Developing the Mobile App with Flutter


Step 9: Setup Flutter and Firebase

- Install Flutter and set up a new project.

- Integrate Firebase SDK into your Flutter app.

- Set up Firebase Authentication if user login is required.

Step 10: Develop the UI

- Design the UI for real-time detection, e.g., a live camera feed with bounding boxes around
detected objects.

Step 11: Integrate YOLOv8 with Flutter

- Create an API using Flask (or FastAPI for better performance) that serves the YOLOv8
model.

- The Flask API will receive video frames from the mobile app, run detection, and return
results.

- Integrate this API into your Flutter app, making HTTP requests to the Flask server.
6. Deploying Flask on a Cloud Server
Step 12: Deploy the Flask API

- Set up a cloud server (e.g., AWS EC2, Google Cloud VM).

- Deploy your Flask API to the server.

- Ensure your Flask server can handle video streams and respond quickly.

7. Real-Time Detection in the Mobile App


Step 13: Real-Time Detection Pipeline

- Capture video frames in the Flutter app using the camera plugin.

- Send frames to the Flask API for inference.

- Display the results (bounding boxes, labels) on the live video feed in real-time.

8. Optimizing and Testing


Step 14: Optimize for Performance

- Optimize the Flask API for faster inference.

- Compress video frames before sending them to the server.

- Use async/await in Flutter to keep the UI responsive.

Step 15: Testing

- Test the app on different devices and network conditions.

- Ensure that the app runs smoothly with minimal latency in detection.

9. Final Deployment and Scaling


Step 16: Final Deployment

- Deploy your mobile app on platforms like Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

- Monitor the performance and scalability of your Flask server and Firebase database.
