YOLOv13 FastAPI REST API Example

A scalable FastAPI server demonstrating real-time object detection capabilities
using YOLOv13 and other YOLO models. This implementation can be easily extended
to support any YOLO model variant for production deployment.

Key Features:
- Real-time object detection via REST API
- Multi-model support (YOLOv13, YOLOv8, and other variants)
- Configurable inference parameters (confidence, IoU thresholds)
- Production-ready error handling and validation
- Performance monitoring and benchmarking

Performance Highlights:
- YOLOv13n: ~0.146s inference time (6.9 FPS theoretical)
- Scalable to any YOLO model family
- Optimized for real-time applications

For a complete production implementation with advanced features, see:
https://github.com/MohibShaikh/yolov13-fastapi-complete

Usage:
    pip install fastapi uvicorn ultralytics python-multipart
    python yolov13_fastapi_api.py
    
    # Test real-time detection:
    curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/detect" \
         -F "image=@path/to/image.jpg" \
         -F "model=yolov13n"
