Hand Detection for Stopping Shredder machine

Objective - To stop the shredder machine once the hand reaches too close to the machine to avoid accidents.

The project is built using Tensorflow (1.14) Object detection where the SSD model has been trained for detecting hands in an image, A Warning and a Machine stop line has been created identifying if the hand is too close to the machine, once the hand reaches the warning line the programs creates a warning beep sound notifying that the hand has breached the safe distance limit, similarly if the hand crosses the Machine stop line, program signals the machine to stop immediately to avoid any accident.
