Google Cloud Vision API enters Beta, open to all to try! <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

[On Thursday, February 18, 2016, we announced] the beta release of Google Cloud Vision API<\/a>. Now anyone can submit their images to the Cloud Vision API to understand the contents of those images\u00a0\u2014\u00a0from detecting everyday objects (for example, \u201csports car,\u201d \u201csushi,\u201d or \u201ceagle\u201d) to reading text within the image or identifying product logos.<\/p>\n

With the beta release of Cloud Vision API, you can access the API with location of images stored in Google Cloud Storage<\/a>, along with existing support of embedding an image as part of the API request. We\u2019re also announcing pricing<\/a> for Cloud Vision API and added additional capabilities to identify the dominant color of an image. For example, you can now apply Label Detection on an image for as little as $2 per 1,000 images or Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for $0.60 for 1,000 images. Pricing will be effective, starting March 1st.<\/p>\n
