Announcement: AWS SDK for Delphi 1.1 — Amazon Rekognition
1.1 adds Amazon Rekognition for machine-learning image analysis from Delphi: detect labels, faces, and text. Plus fixes for pre-signed URL generation.
1.1 picks up the machine-learning thread the SDK started with Polly and Textract in 0.12: this release adds Amazon Rekognition, AWS's image-analysis service.
Rekognition handles work you'd otherwise spend weeks building from scratch: detecting objects and scenes in photographs, finding faces and reading their attributes, recognising celebrities, moderating content, and pulling text out of images. The new TRekognitionClient exposes the API through the same idiomatic Delphi interface as the rest of the SDK.
That makes it the third service in the SDK's machine-learning grouping (Polly for speech, Textract for documents, Rekognition for images), and it opens scenarios that have been hard from Delphi: AI moderation pipelines, automated image tagging, face-based authentication flows.
