The need for the public to wear face masks in public is ever increasing. Research has shown that proper usage of face masks and PPE can significantly reduce transmission of COVID-19. In this paper, a computer vision with a deep-learning approach is proposed to develop a medical PPE detection algorithm with real-time video feed capability. This paper aims to use the YOLO object detection algorithm to perform one-stage object detection and classification to identify the three different states of face mask usage and detect the presence of medical PPE. At present, there is no publicly available PPE dataset for object detection. Thus, this paper aims to establish a medical PPE dataset for future applications and development. The YOLO model achieved 84.5 accuracy on our established PPE dataset comprising seven classes in more than 1300 images, the largest dataset for evaluating medical PPE detection in the wild. © 2021 IEEE publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. date: 2021 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bhing, N.W. and Sebastian, P.
