Public preview – Video Indexer animated character detection

Share

Services

Animated content or cartoons are one of the most popular content types, but standard AI vision models built for human faces do not work well with them, especially if the content has characters without human features. In this new preview solution, Video Indexer joins forces with Microsoft’s Azure Custom Vision service to provide a new set of models that **automatically detect and group animated characters** and allow customers to then **tag and recognise** them easily via integrated custom vision models. These models are integrated into a single pipeline, which allows anyone to use the service without any previous machine learning skills. The results are available through the no-code Video Indexer portal or the REST API for easy integration into your own applications. To get started with animated character recognition, please visit our [documentation page](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/video-indexer/animated-characters-recognition). * Media Services * Video Indexer * Features * Services * [ Media Services](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/media-services/)
