YOLO26 TFLite object detection demo
Try live YOLO26 inference on your webcam. The YOLO26n .tflite model loads automatically; start the camera and watch the annotated results. Your camera frames stay in your browser.
First visit? Give the model a moment to download. Your browser will ask for camera permission when you press Start webcam. Use Stop webcam to release it.
How to try the YOLO26 webcam demo
- 1
Wait for the model
The YOLO26n model loads automatically. The button becomes available when it is ready.
- 2
Start your webcam
Press Start webcam and allow camera access in your browser's permission prompt.

Explore the detections
Move objects into view to see annotated predictions. Press Stop webcam when you are done.
How YOLO26 TFLite inference works
This demo downloads a YOLO26n model in the .tflite format and runs it with LiteRT in your browser. The webcam supplies the frames, and the page draws predictions over the live view. It is a quick way to see how a model behaves on objects around you before building a camera application of your own.
The annotated view shows predicted object boxes on each camera frame. Try different objects and lighting to see where the detector succeeds or misses something. Inference speed depends on your browser and device; this demo does not record or export video.
From demo to your own object detector
The built-in YOLO26n model is a starting point for testing real-time object detection. This page handles model loading, camera access, inference, and drawing the results. For an application, choose a model trained for your objects and test its accuracy and speed on the device where it will run. This browser demo uses its built-in model only.
Questions about the demo
- Do I need to upload a model or video?
- No. This demo loads a hosted YOLO26n LiteRT model automatically. Start your webcam to run inference; there is no model picker or video upload.
- Is my webcam feed uploaded?
- No. The browser downloads the model and inference runtime, then processes camera frames inside your browser tab. Camera frames are not sent to this site's server.
- Why does the browser ask for camera permission?
- Your browser requires permission before a page can read your webcam. Access starts only after you press Start webcam. Press Stop webcam or close the tab to release the camera.
- What do I need to run the demo?
- Use a modern browser with a webcam and camera permission enabled. Camera access requires a secure connection (HTTPS) or localhost. The first visit also needs a connection to download the model and browser runtime.
- What do the boxes on the webcam show?
- Each annotation marks an object the YOLO26n detection model recognizes in the current camera frame. Labels name the predicted class; a confidence value, when shown, indicates how certain the model is. Predictions can be wrong or missed, especially in poor lighting.
- Can I use my own TFLite model here?
- This demo runs its built-in YOLO26n model automatically. It does not accept custom model uploads; it is a quick way to try webcam inference before integrating a model into your own application.
- What is LiteRT?
- LiteRT is Google's runtime for the .tflite model format. This page uses the browser version to run the YOLO26 model locally and draw its predictions over your live camera view.
