Show HN: Open-sourced (road) traffic counting application

#1
I was developing/selling this application under Roadometry, but sales are getting slow and I'd prefer to make it available for free.

This is a desktop Windows application which can be used for counting road traffic.

https://roadometry.com https://www.youtube.com/@roadometry2011

The application uses Multiple Hypothesis Tracking (MHT) combined with Darknet Yolo.

I trained the network myself. I have a tool-chain for building a video-based training set including associations, but it's quite complex to use. I never ended up training a network to perform association, but I think a combined detector/associator network is the next step.

Maybe I missed something but this seems pretty closed source to me.

"Source available" would be a more appropriate term for this project.

I botched the open-sourcing, I intended to post this one: https://github.com/asfarley/vtc_opensource

I've updated the license to BSD 3-Clause and deleted the EULA.txt.

In that repo, the default branch 'main' has only a licence file. Perhaps you meant to make the 'master' branch the default?
