Training YOLO with Synthetic Data from Duality AI's Falcon Simulation Software ๐ŸŽฎ๐Ÿ“Š
Hello again! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Duality.ai has released a second Google Colab and tutorial for training a YOLOv8 model using synthetic data from our Falcon simulation software!

https://falcon.duality.ai/secure/documentation/see-synth-work-no-specs?sidebarMode=learn#download-the-colab-notebook

Train using synthetic images of a soup can twin this time, and see it work on real-world images. ๐Ÿฅซ๐Ÿœ
The tutorial also walks you through how to add your own twin from our FalconCloud library, and our goal is to equip people like you to be able to create your own data for your own projects.

You'll have to create a free account to access the files, but once you do, you'll have access to not only this colab file, but also all of our lessons and our digital twin library. ๐ŸŽ“

Instructions for creating the synthetic data accessed by the colab notebook can be found here: https://falcon.duality.ai/secure/documentation/ex2-objdetection-newtwin?sidebarMode=learn

This method is a game-changer for cost-effective, scalable, and customizable datasets in computer vision.

Why Synthetic Data?๐Ÿค”
- Precise Annotations: Get bounding boxes, segmentation masks, and more without manual effort.
- Customizable Scenarios: Get comprehensive data and cover all corner cases by simulating diverse conditions like lighting, weather, visual occlusions, and more.

Whatโ€™s in the Notebook?๐Ÿ““
- Training & Evaluation: Train YOLOv8 with synthetic data and test its performance on real-world samples.

Letโ€™s Discuss!๐Ÿ’ฌ

@DualityAI-RebekahBogdanoff - Thanks for posting this for the community! This is an important one - it opens the door to our users easily creating their own data and detection models, all built off of the process laid out in Exercise 1 and leveraging the ready-to-use digital twin catalog that we offer to our users.

Very excited to see what the community here builds!

Awesome to see new exercises arriving so quickly!
