PowerShell Amazon Web Services (AWS) Rekognition Detect Image Labels with AWS Rekognition
Example
$BucketName = 'trevorrekognition'
$FileName = 'kitchen.jpg'
New-S3Bucket -BucketName $BucketName
Write-S3Object -BucketName $BucketName -File $FileName
$REKResult = Find-REKLabel -Region us-east-1 -ImageBucket $BucketName -ImageName $FileName
$REKResult.Labels
After running the script above, you should have results printed in your PowerShell host that look something similar to the following:
RESULTS:
Confidence Name
---------- ----
86.87605 Indoors
86.87605 Interior Design
86.87605 Room
77.4853 Kitchen
77.25354 Housing
77.25354 Loft
66.77325 Appliance
66.77325 Oven
Using the AWS PowerShell module in conjunction with the AWS Rekognition service, you can detect labels in an image, such as identifying objects in a room, attributes about photos you took, and the corresponding confidence level that AWS Rekognition has for each of those attributes.
The Find-REKLabel command is the one that enables you to invoke a search for these attributes / labels. While you can provide image content as a byte array during the API call, a better method is to upload your image files to an AWS S3 Bucket, and then point the Rekognition service over to the S3 Objects that you want to analyze. The example above shows how to accomplish this.
