This paper presents an efficient way of detecting directed objects by predicting their center coordinates and direction angle. Since the objects are of uniform size, the proposed model works without predicting the object's width and height. The dataset used for this problem is presented in Honeybee Segmentation and Tracking Datasets project. One of the contributions of this work is an examination of the ability of the standard real-time object detection architecture like YoloV7 to be customized for position and direction detection. A very efficient, tiny version of the architecture is used in this approach. Moreover, only one of three detection heads without anchors is sufficient for this task. We also introduce the extended Skew Intersection over Union (SkewIoU) calculation for rotated boxes - directed IoU (DirIoU), which includes an absolute angle difference. DirIoU is used both in the matching procedure of target and predicted bounding boxes for mAP calculation, and in the NMS filtering procedure. The code and models are available at https://github.com/djordjened92/yudo.
