Code examples for Google Vision API written in Python.

Description

Example codes has following features:

  • Face Detection
  • Landmark Detection
  • Logo Detection
  • Label Detection
  • Text Detection

Requirement

  • Python 3.x
  • Credentials

Setup

To install necessary library, simply use pip:

pip install google-cloud-vision

or,

pip install -r requirements.txt

Next, set up to authenticate with the Cloud Vision API using your project's service account credentials. See the Vision API Client Libraries for more information. Then, set the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to point to your downloaded service account credentials:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/your/credentials-key.json

Image Sizing

To enable accurate image detection within the Google Cloud Vision API, images should generally be a minimum of 640 x 480 pixels (about 300k pixels). Full details for different types of Vision API Feature requests are shown below:

Vision API Feature Recommended Size Notes
FACE_DETECTION 1600 x 1200 Distance between eyes is most important
LANDMARK_DETECTION 640 x 480
LOGO_DETECTION 640 x 480
LABEL_DETECTION 640 x 480
TEXT_DETECTION 1024 x 768 OCR requires more resolution to detect characters
SAFE_SEARCH_DETECTION 640 x 480
