When comparing YOLOv10 vs. YOLOv8 for CCTV footage, the choice depends on whether your priority is raw speed and efficiency (YOLOv10) or high detection accuracy, particularly for small or distant objects (YOLOv8).
YOLOv10 is faster and more efficient due to its NMS-free (Non-Maximum Suppression) design, making it ideal for edge devices and real-time, low-latency applications, while YOLOv8 is a more mature and versatile, robust model.
