Anubhav Singh

Anubhav Singh, a web developer since before Bootstrap was launched, is an explorer of technologies, often pulling off crazy combinations of uncommon tech. An international rank holder in the Cyber Olympiad, he started off by developing his own social network and search engine as his first projects at the age of 15, which stood among the top 500 websites of India during their operational years. He's continuously developing software for the community in domains with roads less walked on. You can often catch him guiding students on how to approach ML or the web, or both together. He's also the founder of The Code Foundation, an AI-focused start-up. Anubhav is a Venkat Panchapakesan Memorial Scholarship awardee and an Intel Software Innovator.

Object detection using the Face API and Python

Object detection is a classic use case of computer vision and is widely applied to a number of real-world problems, such as video surveillance systems. In this section, we will be using the Face API to detect faces from a given image. This has direct use when designing video surveillance systems. You can learn more about the Face API from its official page at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/face/.

The initial setup

Azure lets you try this API for free for a duration of 7 days, as well. But since you already have an Azure account (with free credit, I am assuming), we can do it another way, as shown:
