Collect Images at the Edge with Roboflow Collect
Blog post from Roboflow
Roboflow Collect is a newly introduced application designed to streamline the process of gathering images for computer vision applications by offering multiple data collection methods, such as using webcams on edge devices, input from YouTube livestreams, and desktop webcams on macOS for testing. It allows users to deploy it to the edge and collect images at specified intervals, or gather semantically related images using the CLIP model by either matching existing dataset images or responding to specific text prompts. The application facilitates the uploading of collected data to Roboflow Annotate for efficient management and annotation, supporting the creation of comprehensive datasets for model training. Roboflow Collect can be configured to gather images at specific intervals, find semantically similar images, or collect data from livestreams, offering flexibility and efficiency in building computer vision datasets.
