The Hand Detection API is an advanced tool that utilizes image analysis techniques to identify and analyze human hands within an input image. It outputs precise coordinates of hand bone nodes, enabling developers to capture and understand intricate hand gestures and positions.
The API employs complex image processing algorithms to recognize and isolate hands within the input image. It then employs skeletal tracking techniques to accurately determine the positions of the hand's 21 bone nodes, including finger joints and hand articulations.
The API is designed to work with images containing human hands. It's important for the input images to have appropriate aspect ratios and clear visibility of hands. Images with varying lighting conditions, orientations, and backgrounds can also be accommodated, but results might vary.
The API's output includes both the coordinate frame of the detected hand and detailed information about the positions of 21 bone nodes within each hand. This data enables developers to recreate and analyze the gestures and hand positions.
Yes, the API is capable of detecting multiple hands within a single image. It can provide comprehensive information about the bone nodes of each detected hand, allowing for precise analysis of each hand's gesture.
The Hand Detection API returns detailed information about detected hands, including the coordinates of 21 bone nodes for each hand. This data allows developers to analyze hand gestures and movements accurately.
The key fields in the response data include "hand_info," which contains an array of detected hands, and "hand_parts," detailing the coordinates (x, y) and confidence scores for each bone node of the hand.
The response data is structured in JSON format, with a top-level "message" indicating success and a "data" object containing "hand_info." Each hand's details are nested within this object, providing a clear hierarchy for accessing specific information.
The Analyze endpoint primarily accepts an image file as input. Users can customize their requests by adjusting image quality, resolution, and format to optimize detection results.
Users can utilize the returned data by mapping the coordinates of the bone nodes to visualize hand gestures or integrate them into applications for gesture recognition, gaming, or virtual interactions.
Typical use cases include gesture-based controls in AR/VR applications, sign language interpretation, and enhancing user interactions in gaming, where precise hand movement tracking is essential.
Data accuracy is maintained through advanced image processing algorithms and machine learning techniques that continuously improve hand detection capabilities based on diverse training datasets.
If the API returns partial or empty results, users should check the input image quality and ensure hands are clearly visible. Implementing error handling in the application can help manage such scenarios gracefully.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world’s most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]
Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.
The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.
Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]
Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the ‘X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.
To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1,000 requests per month, this header will display 1,000.
The ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset’ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.
Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.
You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]
To give you the opportunity to experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost. This trial can be used only once, so we recommend applying it to the API that interests you the most. While most of our APIs offer a free trial, some may not. The trial concludes after 7 days or once you've made 50 requests, whichever occurs first. If you reach the 50 request limit during the trial, you will need to "Start Your Paid Plan" to continue making requests. You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab. Alternatively, if you don't cancel your subscription before the 7th day, your free trial will end, and your plan will automatically be billed, granting you access to all the API calls specified in your plan. Please keep this in mind to avoid unwanted charges.
After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it’s important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.
When you subscribe to an API free trial, you can make up to 50 API calls. If you wish to make additional API calls beyond this limit, the API will prompt you to perform an "Start Your Paid Plan." You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab.
Payout Orders are processed between the 20th and the 30th of each month. If you submit your request before the 20th, your payment will be processed within this timeframe.
