Deep learning based object detection has recently gained significant interest. This work focuses on real time object detection using two deep learning models named Faster Regional Convolution Neural Network (Faster-RCNN) and MobileNet Single Shot MultiBox Detector (MobileNet-SSD). An experiment is done using Python for programming, TensorFlow library for computing and OpenCV for computer vision. The Faster-RCNN and MobileNet-SSD models are trained using 400 images of four objects which are persons, watches, cell phones, and books. It is shown that for the images considered, Faster-RCNN can successfully detect these four objects with higher accuracy than MobileNet-SSD. Faster-RCNN also requires less time than MobilneNet-SSD for training the objects. However, Faster-RCNN model is slightly slower than MobileNet-SSD in real time object detection.
