The Vision framework can be used for a variety of computer vision tasks, including:
- Face Detection: Identifying faces and face landmarks such as eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Text Recognition: Recognizing text in 18 different languages, including Korean, Swedish, and Chinese.
- Body Pose Tracking: Tracking body poses and trajectories, which is useful for health and fitness applications.
- Hand Pose Tracking: Enabling interaction with Apple devices without touching the screen.
These capabilities allow developers to create apps with advanced visual intelligence features. Additionally, the Vision framework has been updated with a new Swift API that offers streamlined syntax designed for Swift, making it easier to integrate these features into apps.
