In this tutorial, you will learn how to use Object Detection API in 5 minutes using Python and Eden AI Object Detection API. Eden AI provides an easy and developer-friendly API that allows you to detect objects in images.
What is Object Detection ?
Object detection (or object classification) is a Computer Vision technique that aims to identify and locate the presence of an object instance or class of objects in an image. Therefore, it does not require data for model training. Particular attention is paid to the detection of faces and people. Object detection can be found in many domains, such as content-based image search or video surveillance.
