Azure Computer Vision in a day workshop

In this technical workshop, you will receive a thorough introduction to Azure Computer Vision and Azure Vision Studio. You will be taught how to utilize the new capabilities of Azure Computer Vision 4 to analyze images, including its multimodal features (Florence). Moreover, you will be able to investigate pre-existing solution accelerators and best practices for prototyping and deploying end-to-end use cases. Finally, the workshop will conclude with a Q&A session and a wrap-up.

Note: Some features are currently inpreview and the API may change in the future.
