Abstract

Wearing facemasks is the need of the day for everyone during this COVID- 19 pandemic since the COVID-19 virus may be transmitted via the mouth, nose, or eyes, which can happen when a person comes into direct or close contact with someone who carries the virus. However, despite the stringent implementation, some individuals neglect the correct use of facemasks, oblivious to the hazards of probable virus transmission. This paper will show how deep learning using a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) can detect whether the if a person has the face mask on his face or not.
