Teaching computers to see and listen is a lot easier when you have pre-trained machine learning APIs doing the heavy lifting. In this adventure, you'll start by querying Google Cloud endpoints directly from APIs Explorer, then teach your applications to read multilingual text, recognize facial features, and spot landmarks in raw photos. Once your visual pipeline is dialed in, you'll turn to audio—converting spoken words into real-time transcripts and streaming live audio directly through web interfaces. Knock out both challenge labs unassisted to prove you can turn unstructured sight and sound into clean, actionable cloud intelligence.
