Rochester, NY-based LiquidPixels, Inc., announced the addition of LiquiFire Object Detect and LiquiFire Edge Detect features for advanced imaging, available to all users of LiquiFire OS Blaze. LiquiFire OS Object Detect and Edge Detect can be used to automatically discover, discern, and isolate objects in images. LiquiFire OS Blaze can detect facial features, full-body imagery, and other elements to auto-crop to an object, create new masks, colorize elements, apply patterns, and more., the company says.

Object Detect and Edge Detect can auto-detect a face in a crowd of many, focus on that face, remove the background around that individual, crop to that face, and identify specific facial features for accessories—automatically, instantly, and on-demand, the company claims.

“This goes way beyond facial recognition,” said Marc Spencer, LiquidPixels Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer. “We created Object Detect and Edge Detect to leverage complex machine learning technologies in a simple-to-use advanced imaging world. The flexibility of LiquiFire Image Chains brings together imaging tools to produce a customized user experience that simply does not exist on any other platform.”
