The NFL Competition dataset contains nearly 10,000 images of football players during game play. This dataset can be used to detect the number of players and their locations on the field in order to alert coaches of possible NFL formation penalties or to analyze formations post-game. It can also be used as a starting point for automated player safety checks, ensuring each player is wearing a helmet. | |
