Testing A Computer Vision Model In 10 Seconds Or Less

Roboflow Inference Widget

Last December we introduced the Roboflow inference widget on Roboflow Universe. A feature that helps developers test trained models by dragging and dropping images they expect the model to detect in the wild. The action hits the model inference API, which in turn produces the color coded bounding boxes on the objects the model was trained to detect, along with its labels, and confidence for each prediction. The feature also produces the JSON output provided by the API.

Introducing the Roboflow Inference Widget

This month we brought our Inference Widget over to the core app to make testing models on Roboflow even easier!

Using The Widget

You can test each version of your model on the versions tab of your project, by selecting either a file from your device or dragging and dropping one on the screen.

Where to drag and drop your photo for testing

To make testing more readily available, you can drop an image anywhere within your project to test the latest version of your model.

Other Ways To Test Model Performance

The inference widget is just one of many ways to test your model. Other features for testing include:
