How to Build a Vision-Language Model Application with Next.js

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are advanced AI models that integrate image and text processing to facilitate various computer vision applications. This blog post demonstrates the creation of a web application called Street Sign Interpreter, which utilizes VLM capabilities to recognize and interpret street signs globally, regardless of language or design. The application is built using Next.js and Roboflow Workflows, a low-code platform for developing AI workflows. The process involves creating an AI workflow that interprets street signs using Google Gemini, a multimodal model by Google DeepMind, and integrating it with a Next.js web application that offers a user interface and backend logic. The workflow processes images and generates interpretations as JSON outputs, which are then handled by the Next.js API. The application is deployed on Vercel after being pushed to a GitHub repository, showcasing the integration of cutting-edge AI models with modern web frameworks for seamless and scalable solutions in computer vision tasks.
