This simple sample project recognizes hands in realtime. 👋 It serves as a basic example for recognizing your own objects. Suitable for AR 🤓. Written for the tutorial “Create your own Object Recognizer”.
Tech: iOS 11, ARKit, CoreML, iPhone 7 plus, Xcode 9.1, Swift 4.0
This demonstrates basic Object Recognition (for spread hand 🖐, fist 👊, and no hands ❎). It serves as a building block for object detection, localization, gesture-recognition, and hand tracking.
Disclaimer:
The sample model provided here was captured in 1 hour and is biased to one human hand 👋🏼. It’s intended as a placeholder for your own models. (See Tutorial)
Here’s an overview of the steps taken. (You can also view my commit history to see steps involved.)
- Build an Intuition by playing with Google CL's Teachable Machine.
- Build dataset.
- Create a Core ML Model using Microsoft's CustomVision.ai.
- Run the model in realtime with ARKit.
P.S. A few well selected images are sufficient for CustomVision.ai . For the sample model here, I did 3 rounds of data collection (adding 63, 38, 21 images per round). Alternating classes during data collection also appeared to work better than gathering all the class images at once.
