[RELEASED] Unity3D Google Cloud Vision

Powerful Image Analysis:
• Label Detection
• Face Detection
• Explicit Content Detection
• Image Attributes
• Logo Detection
• Web Detection
• Landmark Detection
• Optical Character Recognition

• Full included Google Cloud Vision REST API

• File browser included

Google Cloud Vision enables developers to understand the content of an image. It quickly classifies images into thousands of categories (e.g., "sailboat", "lion", "Eiffel Tower"), detects individual objects and faces within images, and finds and reads printed words contained within images. You can build metadata on your image catalog, moderate offensive content, or enable new marketing scenarios through image sentiment analysis. Analyze images uploaded in the request or integrate with your image storage on Google Cloud Storage.

Based on Google Cloud Vision API

Warning:
• Be sure to read the terms of service of Google Cloud Vision API
• The plugin does not cover the cost of the Google Cloud Service
• Pricing

Full source code Included!

File formats:
• JPEG
• PNG8
• PNG24
• GIF
• Animated GIF (first frame only)
• BMP
• WEBP
• RAW
• ICO

Image sizing:
To enable accurate image detection within the Google Cloud Vision, images should generally be a minimum of 640 x 480 pixels (about 300k pixels)

File size:
Image files sent to the Google Cloud Vision should not exceed 4 MB.

Note:
• Works with il2cpp.
• Tested on:
---Android
---IOS
---Windows
---Mac
---WindowsStore
• Works with Unity Cloud Build.

Will there be some examples in the package? For example Document OCR

haha,
yeah

I'm also want that the Unity review it faster

 

Still waiting.

 

How long did it take for Google Speech to get approved?

 

Hello,

1) please write me mail regarding the vision asset on email frostweep@gmail.com.
2) actually the new assets takes much more time for approving.. 21+ days. for the approved assets it takes 2-7days.

Best

 

Ok thanks, I sent you an Email

 

Asset already available on asset store!

 

Yahoo! I just bought it. Thanks! I will get around to trying it out tomorrow.

 

inport
Assets/FrostweepGames/GCVision/Scripts/Core/Managers/VisionManager.cs(78,46): error CS0433: The imported type `Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert' is defined multiple times

This is a problem that happens often. I use Playmaker and bolt. I know how to resolve this problem but it would be great if at import GV does not throw errors.

There must be a way to avoid this.

 

hi,

actually we use dlls of the newtonsoft json parser.. I guess it also has in your project.
we testing it in the empty project so thats why you have some troubles.

you can delete on of them.

I guess we will make own json parser for the our assets in the future.

sorry about that but its not the big problem but thanks for the feedback!

 

Hi, and thanks for this.

I tried the TutorialExample and it works fine getting your website png and Debuging it to the Unity console.

But how do I do this with a photo taken in the Unity Editor? I have captured a photo in Unity with a webcam, converted it to a Base64String and stored that in a variable.

Now I would like to pass that string to google and not a url. Can you please give me an example of this?

Thanks

 

Hello, sure:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. image = new Image()
3.                     {
4.                         source = new ImageSource()
5.                         {
6.                             imageUri = string.Empty,
7.                             gcsImageUri = string.Empty
8.                         },
9.                         content = %yourBase64String%
10.                     },
11.  

Also you can find this code in the 'Example' .

Hope I helped you!
Also if possible we would be happy if you write the review about our asset on the store!

Thanks and Best!

 

Hi and thanks.
I got it working with the TextDetection as you did, but as soon as I switch it to DocumentDetection I get this error. For document do I have to change something else?

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
TutorialExample._gcVision_AnnotateSuccessEvent (FrostweepGames.Plugins.GoogleCloud.Vision.VisionResponse arg1, Int64 arg2) (at Assets/FrostweepGames/GCVision/Examples/TutorialExample/TutorialExample.cs:62)

 

Hello,

I guess you should change the response variable,

you trying to get the response from the other request type. try to get info from other response variable.
for more info you can read documentation on the google https://goo.gl/eh6HqX

 

Hi,

I really appreciate your help very much, so thanks and yes I will be writing a positive review later on today.

I am struggling a little with all the code in your Example. I am not used to GUI. Could you please make a simple example only for document detection and use only the new UI or even just have it save the paragraphs to a string list.

I am not that good a C# at the moment and any examples I find look completely different to how you write your code. The google examples don’t explain much.

I would deeply appreciate a simple coded example as I said above.

Thanks very much

Chris.

My Email eagleeyez@gmx.de

 

I wrote you a review.

 

Hello,

Actually we use new UI system but we making the logic without connecting to the component in the scene.. Sorry, its the SOA^^ but no worry I will make the new example with more understandable logic and view.

Thank you so much for the review and see you soon!

 

Thanks, I look forward to the new example.

 

Hi, how are you getting on with the new example as above?

Hi!

If I may ask, does the text detection can be done real-time using a mobile phone?

 

Hello,

actually its not streaming API but you can make the function that will capture the camera snapshot and then send to Google Service for recognition of the image and get the result of the detection.

And of course, our asset support mobile platforms(android\ios)..

We are using the latest Xcode version 10.1 and our Unity3d version is 2017.4.8f1 on mac.

Can anybody help us with this?

Thanks in advice for any tips to fix this issue.

 

Hello,

insert this file into root of your project. https://github.com/SaladLab/Json.Net.Unity3D/blob/master/src/UnityPackage/Assets/link.xml

should work fine then.

Hello,
I recently bought the asset and tried to use the OCR Example, but it shows Error 403. I tried with changing to another image and its the same error.
Also if I want to use it with Spanish I just have to put this?
languageHints = new string[]
{
"spanish"
},

Thank you for the asset.

 

Hi @FrostweepGames: I've been using your plugin for the last month or so and everything was going smoothly. But for the last week my iOS builds have started consistently failing to contact the Google servers. Everything still works fine in the editor.

I've also recently upgraded my project to 2019.1.1f1, and TBH I'm not sure if the problem started before or after that.

Attached is the error given in the log, which I think just represents a time-out...?

Have you encountered similar issues on iOS recently or with Unity 2019?

 

Whoops. Didn't properly obscure my API key in that post

 

Visual recognition stopped working a few weeks ago in our iOS app in the AppStore. We used Google Cloud Vision v1.1.
Has there been any changes in the API or something that could have broken our current build?

 

Hello,

its could be an IOS upgrade issue.
Or if you upgraded to latest unity it could be also an issue there.

Currently we are loooking on it whats wrong.

Best

 

Any word on this?
