This IBM Code Pattern makes it easy to create your own object recognition AI

IBM developer Nicholas Bourdakos recently created a new Code Pattern that lets just about anyone develop and train an AI model to recognize objects using computer vision. Bourdakos' Code Pattern, called "Create a real-time object detection app using Watson Machine Learning," relies on a tool called Cloud Annotations. It's basically a blueprint for training an AI model to recognize whatever objects you train it on, with a tool that makes labeling your data dead simple. I saw someone doing emoji classification and I thought it would be a cool project to work on with Cloud Annotations and real-time object detection. Using Cloud Annotations and the Code Pattern is relatively simple. In this code pattern, you'll build an iOS app that lets you use your own custom-trained models to detect objects.
