Groknet is basically a product recognition system used by Facebook Shops. This system utilizes advanced computer vision, image processing, and neural networks for determining the details of uploaded images. Groknet helps determine object categories like “pen,” Laptop,” basic attributes like object color, material, size, and any other related information that can be retrieved using the image. It gets data from hashtags uploaded with images, trains itself with this huge data, and then automatically categorizes the newly uploaded image. This AI helps both buyers and sellers in finding or selling the products without the day-lasting search. It also provides a 3D model of an object if the user wants to see it as a whole. Moreover, if you want to buy some glasses or a dress, you can check your picture of how it will look. Read more
