Read Time 5 mins | Written by: Jesse Qin
We are thrilled to announce the release of our new iOS and Android SDKs, delivering an array of groundbreaking features to our developer community. Over the past few months, the team at Koodall AI has been diligently working to create the most advanced and efficient tools on the market. We are confident that you will be as excited about these enhancements as we are.
Let’s dive into the innovative features and improvements we've developed, many of which are a direct result of your valuable feedback.
Enhanced Performance and Quality
Our deep learning team has significantly improved our algorithms, resulting in better performance and superior quality across all our products. The new optimizations mean that our SDKs now use less processing time while delivering better overall results. This is particularly important for applications that require the highest performance and precision, such as video conferencing apps, beauty and makeup applications, and real-time video editing tools.
By reducing the computational load, we've made it possible for your apps to run smoother on a wider range of devices, ensuring that all users have a seamless and enjoyable experience. This enhancement opens up new possibilities for developers to create feature-rich applications without compromising on performance.
Advanced Face Tracking and Segmentation
In addition to performance enhancements, our face tracking and segmentation features have received major accuracy and efficiency boosts. With remote work and virtual communication becoming the norm, we've focused on refining our background segmentation technology to perform better on both iOS and Android platforms. We're also excited to announce that these features are now available on macOS, providing seamless integration across all major operating systems.
Our real-time background segmentation is also coming to our Web SDK, enabling developers to deliver immersive experiences directly within web browsers. Stay tuned for the new version, which will be released shortly. This advancement allows for functionalities such as virtual backgrounds in video calls and dynamic scene alterations in streaming applications, elevating user engagement to new heights.
Introducing Emotions API
We are excited to introduce our new Emotions API, which estimates users' emotions in each frame, including feelings such as anger, sadness, surprise, happiness, and neutrality. This powerful tool allows developers to create more interactive and responsive applications that can adapt to users' emotional states in real-time.
Imagine a gaming app that adjusts difficulty based on the player's frustration level or a virtual assistant that offers support when it detects signs of distress. The possibilities are endless, and we're eager to see how you will leverage this technology to create more empathetic and personalized user experiences.
We've been testing this feature with some of our key clients, and the results have been both insightful and transformative. The Emotions API provides a deeper understanding of user engagement, enabling data-driven decisions to enhance application effectiveness.
API Updates and Improved Flexibility
Our iOS SDK has received a significant API update. We have refactored the code handling the iOS camera into a separate class called CameraController. You can use this class as is, or you can provide your own implementation by adhering to the interface provided in CameraController. This approach aligns more closely with Android's CameraGrabber method, offering greater flexibility to developers.
We've included an example within the SDK download illustrating how to use the new CameraController. It's straightforward to implement, and you should be able to integrate it into your current application in less than 15 minutes. This modification not only streamlines the development process but also provides you with more control over camera functionalities, allowing for customized solutions that meet your specific needs.
In addition to API changes, we've added support for simulators and the latest Xcode versions for iOS developers. This will streamline the development and testing process, allowing you to focus on creating exceptional experiences for your users without worrying about compatibility issues.
Glow Tryon: Enhancing Virtual Makeup Experiences
Our makeup try-on SDK, Glow Tryon, has also seen significant improvements. With enhanced rendering techniques and a broader range of cosmetic options, users can experience virtual beauty like never before. High-definition textures and real-time shading make virtual makeup indistinguishable from real products, providing an authentic and engaging user experience.
Glow Tryon now supports more complex makeup combinations and dynamic lighting adjustments, ensuring that virtual looks remain consistent across different environments. This opens up new opportunities for beauty brands to showcase their products and for developers to create innovative beauty applications.
The Impact of AI and Computer Vision on Industry
Artificial intelligence and computer vision are revolutionizing the way we interact with technology. From enhancing user experiences in mobile apps to transforming the way we communicate remotely, these technologies are at the heart of modern innovation.
At Koodall AI, we understand the potential of AI to reshape industries. Our SDKs empower developers to incorporate advanced AI capabilities into their applications, providing users with immersive, interactive, and personalized experiences.
Technical Insights: How Our AI Works
Our advancements are grounded in complex machine learning algorithms, including deep learning neural networks that enable our SDKs to perform highly sophisticated tasks such as real-time face tracking, emotion recognition, and background segmentation.
- Face Tracking Technology: We utilize convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to detect and analyze facial features with high precision. This allows for seamless application of AR effects and virtual makeup, adjusting dynamically as users move and express different emotions.
- Emotion Recognition: Our Emotions API leverages recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to analyze temporal patterns in facial expressions, providing accurate assessments of user emotions frame by frame. This adds a new layer of interactivity and responsiveness to applications.
- Background Segmentation: Employing semantic segmentation algorithms, our technology distinguishes the user from the background in real-time. Pixel-wise classification enables functionalities like virtual backgrounds in video conferencing or artistic effects in video editing.
By optimizing these models for mobile and web platforms, we achieve real-time performance without compromising quality. Our team continuously works on model compression and acceleration techniques to ensure that even devices with limited resources can run our SDKs efficiently.
Looking Ahead: Future Innovations
We're already hard at work on the next iteration of our SDKs, which will bring even more exciting features and performance improvements. Here are just some of the innovations we have planned:
- Advanced AI-Powered Video Editing Tools: Enhancing our Video Editor SDK/API with cutting-edge AI capabilities that automate complex editing tasks, making professional video production more accessible.
- Enhanced Face AR Effects: Expanding our library of Face AR effects with even more realistic and interactive filters, enabling developers to create captivating and engaging user experiences.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Continuing our commitment to cross-platform support by ensuring compatibility with the latest devices and operating systems, including updates for new hardware advancements.
- Developer Support and Resources: Expanding our documentation, tutorials, and sample code to help you get the most out of our SDKs and simplify the integration process.
Empowering Developers with Advanced Tools
We believe in equipping developers with the tools they need to bring their creative visions to life. Our SDKs are designed to be developer-friendly, with comprehensive documentation and support to ensure a smooth integration process.
Whether you're building a next-generation social media app, an innovative e-commerce platform with virtual try-on features, or enhancing video conferencing solutions with AR capabilities, Koodall AI's SDKs provide the foundation for success.
