YOLOv8 Model Training - BlueJayADAL/JayRadar GitHub Wiki

Getting Started

In order to make a custom yolov8 model, you should start by collecting your dataset. We would recommend using the webcam you plan to run the detection on, and capturing a lot of pictures of your desired target. Once you've done that you can upload and annotate them on Roboflow.

The Colab Notebook

Once you've followed the annotation steps on roboflow, you can train the model on google colab. Make sure to go to dataset>yolov8>continue, then copy the download code. Visit our colab notebook and paste your provided download code into the corresponding area in the notebook.

From here you can run the colab notebook and download the trained model to use with JayRadar.
