Amazon Rekognition is a sophisticated deep learning based service from Amazon Web Services (AWS) that makes it easy to add powerful visual search and discovery to your own applications. With Rekognition using simple APIs, you can quickly detect objects, scenes, faces, celebrities and inappropriate content within images. You can also search, analyze, organize and compare faces.
"I love how you structured the course (demo and code) and most importantly you showed how to use the technology. Most of the course that I've seen and taken lack the latter part." - Sovanna Chuon, Student
"It is exactly what I was looking for: a quick and clear introduction to AWS Rekognition." - Miguel Cabral, Student
"Buen curso, ritmo adecuado y entendible, tal vez falta entrar más en detalle en el código pero en general muy recomendable." - Eduardo Vargas Aguirre, Student

***Important Update - ImageMagick Fix***
September 15, 2019
ImageMagick is no longer bundled with the Node.js 10.x runtime in Lambda due to security reasons. I have included a lecture with all the instructions to install and use a lambda layer to address this issue.
Requirements
- Requirements
- Basic understanding of Amazon Web Services - some prior experience with S3 and Lambda Function really helps
- Preliminary knowledge of NodeJS and HTML - a bit of coding experience doesn't hurt
- A Windows, Mac or Linux Computer with a modern Browser, Node v6.10+ and a Code Editor Installed
- I recommend that you follow the course from beginning to the end in the order it is laid out since some of the later projects build upon earlier ones
