More info

• If you run this on CPU, you can only test with a very short video. Trust me, it took me 4 hrs to proceed a 10s video on my potato one. Otherwise, just buy GPU 😁
• Video source: France vs Croatia WC 2018 Final

Result

Using Resnet50 model, small ball can't be recognized

Using Yolov3 model, more accuracy!
