Very cool!

This plane suspiciously looks like a bird though: https://i.imgur.com/cUdnZTN.png

Haha, I'm working on fixing that. One of my ideas is to run inference again on an image to check if it has any birds. If yes, reject the image.

It's a really cool time to be checking right now! All commercial flights are grounded in Delhi for Republic Day celebrations so I'm able to see images of Air Force planes!

Could you get the speed and location of the plane and estimate how far it should move across two images to determine if its the right target?

That would work if inference on the Pi was faster. Right now it takes about 2.5s per image. The planes are in view for maybe 3s. By the time the next frame is fetched, the plane's already out of view.
