What is the accuracy and resolution of the angles measured using Vision?

I am trying to parse text from an image, split it into words and store the words in a String array. Additionally I want to store the bounding box of each recognized word. My code works but for some reason the bounding boxes of words that are not separated by a space but by an apostrophe come out wrong. Here is the complete code of my VNRecognizeTextRequestHander: let request = VNRecognizeTextRequest { request, error in guard let observations = request.results as? [VNRecognizedTextObservation] else { return } // split recognized text into words and store each word with corresponding observation let wordObservations = observations.flatMap { observation in observation.topCandidates(1).first?.string.unicodeScalars .split(whereSeparator: { CharacterSet.letters.inverted.contains($0) }) .map { (observation, $0) } ?? [] } // store recognized words as strings recognizedWords = wordObservations.map { (observation, word) in String(word) } // calculate bounding box for each word recognizedWordRects = wordObservations.map { (observation, word) in guard let candidate = observation.topCandidates(1).first else { return .zero } let stringRange = word.startIndex..<word.endIndex guard let rect = try? candidate.boundingBox(for: stringRange)?.boundingBox else { return .zero } let bottomLeftOriginRect = VNImageRectForNormalizedRect(rect, Int(captureRect.width), Int(captureRect.height)) // adjust coordinate system to start in top left corner let topLeftOriginRect = CGRect(origin: CGPoint(x: bottomLeftOriginRect.minX, y: captureRect.height - bottomLeftOriginRect.height - bottomLeftOriginRect.minY), size: bottomLeftOriginRect.size) print("BoundingBox for word '\(String(word))': \(topLeftOriginRect)") return topLeftOriginRect } } And here's an example for what's happening. When I'm processing the following image: the code above produces the following output: BoundingBox for word 'In': (23.00069557577264, 5.718113962610181, 45.89460636656961, 32.78087073878238) BoundingBox for word 'un': (71.19064286904202, 6.289275587192936, 189.16024359557852, 34.392966621800475) BoundingBox for word 'intervista': (71.19064286904202, 6.289275587192936, 189.16024359557852, 34.392966621800475) BoundingBox for word 'del': (262.64622870703477, 8.558512219726875, 54.733978711037985, 32.79967358237818) Notice how the bounding boxes of the words 'un' and 'intervista' are exactly the same. This happens consistently for words that are separated by an apostrophe. Why is that? Thank you for any help Elias

Hi, I think many of us would love to be able to use our GPUs for Jax on the new Apple Silicon devices, but currently, the Jax-metal plugin is, for all effects and purposes, broken. Is it still under active development? Is there a planned release for a new version? thanks!

I seem to be having some trouble running the example app from the WWDC 2023 session on 3D Body Pose Detection (this one). I'm getting an issue about the request revision being incompatible, I tried searching the API documentation for any configuration that has been changed or introduced but to no avail. I also couldn't find much online for it. Is this a known issue? Or am I doing something wrong? Error in question: Unable to perform the request: Error Domain=com.apple.Vision Code=16 "VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequest does not support VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequestRevision1" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequest does not support VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequestRevision1}.

Hi, I have been trying to connect my microphone on my reason studio for days now without any outcome. So I was asked to download ASIO Driver on my mac. I realised that I have an IAC driver. I need help on downloading the Asio driver and wish to know if there will be a problem running it with the IAC driver. I also just upgraded without knowing from ventura to sonoma. Am using an audio iinterface(Focusrite scarlett solo to connect to the reason application and my mic is nt1-a rode but I can get a sound but cannot record. Will be overwhelmed if I can get help from here. Thanks

Currently in South Korea, due to my personal experiences with what seems like warranty but isn't, and the operation of a ruthless Genius Bar, I feel compelled to purchase the officially released Vision Pro. I'd like to discuss with other developers here about their thoughts on the release schedule. The product launched in the USA in February, but I'm curious about the months following for the secondary and tertiary launch countries. Naturally, we'll know the launch is imminent when local staff are summoned to the headquarters for training. However, the urgency for localized services, development, and personal purchase is growing on my mind.

Hi Apple Team, We have a technical query regarding one feature- Audio Recognition and Live captioning. We are developing an app for deaf community to avoid communication barriers. We want to know if there is any possibility to recognize the sound from other applications in an iPhone and show live captions in our application (based on iOS).

Hi, In Xcode 14 I was able to train linear regression models with Create ML using large CSV files (I tested on about 30000 items and 5 features): However, in Xcode 15 (I tested on 15.0.1 and 15.1), the training continuously stays in the "Processing" state: When using a dataset with 900 items, everything works fine. I filed a feedback for this issue: FB13516799. Does anybody else have this issue / can reproduce it?

I am working on a design that requires connecting an ios device to two audio output devices specifically headphones and a speaker. I want the audio driver to switch output device without user action. Is this manageable via ios SDK?

Hi, there seems to be a difference in behavior when running inference on a trained Keras model using the model __call__ method vs. using the predict or predict_on_batch methods. This only happens when using the GPU for inference and it seems that for certain sequence of operations and float types the 'relu' activation doesn't work as expected and seems to do nothing. I can replicate the problem with the following code (it would only fail with 'relu' activation and tf.float16 and tf.float32 types, while it works fine with tf.float64). import tensorflow as tf import numpy as np DATA_LENGTH = 16 DENSE_WIDTH = 16 BATCH_SIZE = 8 DTYPE = tf.float32 ACTIVATION = 'relu' def TestModel(): inputs = tf.keras.Input(DATA_LENGTH, dtype=DTYPE) u = tf.keras.layers.Dense(DENSE_WIDTH, activation=ACTIVATION, dtype=DTYPE)(inputs) # u = tf.maximum(u, 0.0) output = u*tf.constant(1.0, dtype=DTYPE) model = tf.keras.Model(inputs, output, name="TestModel") return model model = TestModel() model.compile() x = np.random.uniform(size=(BATCH_SIZE, DATA_LENGTH)).astype(DTYPE.as_numpy_dtype) with tf.device('/GPU:0'): out_gpu_call = model(x, training=False) out_gpu_predict = model.predict_on_batch(x) with tf.device('/CPU:0'): out_cpu_call = model(x, training=False) out_cpu_predict= model.predict_on_batch(x) print(f'\nDTYPE {DTYPE}, ACTIVATION: {ACTIVATION}') print("\tMean Abs. Difference GPU (__call__ vs. predict):", np.mean(np.abs(out_gpu_call - out_gpu_predict))) print("\tMean Abs.

Upon inspection of the results it seems that the problem is that the 'relu' activation is not setting the values < 0 to 0 when calling predict_on_batch. When uncommenting the # u = tf.maximum(u, 0.0) line after the Dense layer there is no difference between the two calls (as should be expected). It also happens that removing the multiplication by a constant after the Dense layer, output = u*tf.constant(1.0, dtype=DTYPE) makes the problem dissappear (even when leaving the # u = tf.maximum(u, 0.0) line commented). This is running with the following setup: MacBook Pro, Apple M2 Max chip, macOS Sonoma 14.2 tf version 2.15.0 tensorflow-metal 1.1.0 Python 3.10.13

Tensorflow-Metal training got an increasing loss in CNN. But same codes run correctly after pip uninstall tensorflow-metal

I'm going to the U.S. to buy a vision pro, does anyone have any information about where they sell it? Will it be sold in Hawaii by any chance? For now, I'm thinking about New York.

I'm currently building an iOS app that requires the ability to detect a person's height with a live video stream. The new VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequest is exactly what I need but the observations I'm getting back are very inconsistent and unreliable. When I say inconsistent, I mean the values never seem to settle and they can fluctuate anywhere from 5 '4" to 10'1" (I'm about 6'0"). In terms of unreliable, I have once seen a value that closely matches my height but I rarely see any values that are close enough (within an inch) of the ground truth. In terms of my code, I'm not doing any fancy. I'm first opening a LiDAR stream on my iPhone Pro 14: guard let videoDevice = AVCaptureDevice.default(.builtInLiDARDepthCamera, for: .video, position: .back) else { return } guard let videoDeviceInput = try? AVCaptureDeviceInput(device: videoDevice) else { return } guard captureSession.canAddInput(videoDeviceInput) else { return } captureSession.addInput(videoDeviceInput) I'm then creating an output synchronizer so I can get both image and depth data at the same time: videoDataOutput = AVCaptureVideoDataOutput() captureSession.addOutput(videoDataOutput) depthDataOutput = AVCaptureDepthDataOutput() depthDataOutput.isFilteringEnabled = true captureSession.addOutput(depthDataOutput) outputVideoSync = AVCaptureDataOutputSynchronizer(dataOutputs: [depthDataOutput, videoDataOutput]) Finally, my delegate function that handles the synchronizer is roughly: fileprivate func perform3DPoseRequest(cmSampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer, depthData: AVDepthData) { let imageRequestHandler = VNImageRequestHandler(cmSampleBuffer: cmSampleBuffer, depthData: depthData, orientation: .up) let request = VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequest() do { // Perform the body pose request. try imageRequestHandler.perform([request]) if let observation = request.results?.first { if (observation.heightEstimation == .measured) { print("Body height (ft) \(formatter.string(fromMeters: Double(observation.bodyHeight))) (m): \(observation.bodyHeight)") ... I'd appreciate any help determining how to get accurate results from the observation's bodyHeight. Thanks!

I created a new environment on Conda and then installed TensorFlow using the command "pip install TensorFlow" on my Mac M1 Pro machine. But TensorFlow is not working.
