Amazon Rekognition : Intro

Introduction


Amazon Rekognition is an Amazon Web Service (AWS) that provides image and video analysis services. You can provide an image or video and the service will detect objects, people and scenes. Detected faces can also be matched against a set of known faces.

This allows to implement use cases like user verification, people counting or public safety.


The service is based on Amazon’s deep learning technology that is also used in other services. To use the service, no knowledge about the underlying technologies is necessary. You can simply invoke the existing API and process the results of the invocations.


Some of the features are

  1. Object and scene detection

  2. Facial Analysis

  3. Face Comparison

  4. Text in Image

  5. Video Analysis, etc


Same as other services, Amazon Rekognition provides SDK for AWS CLI, Java, Python, PHP, .NET and Javascript.



I am going to write about testing Amazon Rekognition on AWS by using its Demo features in next post.
