Build a collection and find faces in it

This example shows you how to do the following:

  • Create an Amazon Rekognition collection.
  • Add images to the collection and detect faces in it.
  • Search the collection for faces that match a reference image.
  • Delete a collection.
<!--custom.scenario_prereqs.rekognition_Usage_FindFacesInCollection.start--> <!--custom.scenario_prereqs.rekognition_Usage_FindFacesInCollection.end-->

Start the example by running the following at a command prompt:

python rekognition_collections.py
<!--custom.scenarios.rekognition_Usage_FindFacesInCollection.start--> <!--custom.scenarios.rekognition_Usage_FindFacesInCollection.end-->

Detect and display elements in images

This example shows you how to do the following:

  • Detect elements in images by using Amazon Rekognition.
  • Display images and draw bounding boxes around detected elements.
<!--custom.scenario_prereqs.rekognition_Usage_DetectAndDisplayImage.start--> <!--custom.scenario_prereqs.rekognition_Usage_DetectAndDisplayImage.end-->

Start the example by running the following at a command prompt:

python rekognition_image_detection.py
<!--custom.scenarios.rekognition_Usage_DetectAndDisplayImage.start--> <!--custom.scenarios.rekognition_Usage_DetectAndDisplayImage.end-->

Detect objects in images

This example shows you how to build an app that uses Amazon Rekognition to detect objects by category in images.
