Article Summary

After you create a project, upload images to it. LandingLens will train a model based on the images you upload and label.

Supported Files Types

  • BMP
  • JPEG
  • PNG (recommended)
  • Pascal VOC: Available only for Object Detection projects. Pascal VOC is a file type for images labeled in LandingLens or an external application. This file format includes the label details and tells the platform where a label is on the associated image.

Image Size

You can upload images of any size; we don't limit images to a maximum file size or maximum dimensions.

However, images are resized during model training.

Number of Images in a Project

The number of images you can upload to a project depends on the project type:

  • Object Detection and Classification: You can upload any number of images to a project.
  • Segmentation: You can upload up to 10,000 images to a project.
  • Visual Prompting: You can upload up to 20 images to a project. For more information, go to Visual Prompting.

Number of Images Required for a Project

You must upload and label at least 10 images before training a model.

Since every project is different, there is no recommended number of images for the project. The optimal number of images for your project generally depends on these factors:

  • How elaborate the object to identify is
  • How many types of objects there are
  • How the object looks

For example, a phone with a cracked screen would require fewer images than a printed circuit board with several intricate parts.
