The key features
Object Recognition
This is the core functionality that Image Recognition AI provides DAM users. As you see in the video, we upload files within WoodWing Assets and the API automatically includes the metadata in the returned assets within Assets.
At this point, it’s always important to validate the metadata - and build on it with additional information your users might need. From here users can either search or filter by the tags you approve - providing multiple options to find exactly what they’re looking for. This could save thousands of hours (and a lot of frustration) for DAM administrators everywhere!
Clarifai has consistently delivered the richest, most varied metadata throughout testing, but the other tools are catching up quickly.
In our demo, we’ve created specific fields for the different tools so you can see what each provides. You see already that there is a big difference between the type of metadata that is retrieved so when evaluating the different tools, it’s important to relate this back to your requirements checklist.
Image searching
Imagine you’ve come across the perfect image you need online and you need to find something similar in your own database. Simply drag and drop that image to the plugin search function and WoodWing Assets will automatically deliver a bank of images with the same tags. The image you searched with will not even added to Assets, meaning you keep a clean database of your own assets.
Facial analysis
Here, we can filter by characteristics like mustaches to find the exact image we need.
If your image library features a lot of people, being able to break it down by searching for things like emotion, or personal characteristics can save significant amounts of time.
Amazon shines in this area, and with a simple integration within WoodWing Assets, it’s easy to keep this metadata as a separate field. By doing this it makes it very easy to refine searches by filtering, as you might with taxonomies.
