       I built this Observable notebook that runs object detection against images you provide, using the excellent Transformers.js package and the Xenova/detr-resnet-50 model:https://observablehq.com/@simonw/detect-objects-in-images(It may crash Mobile Safari)

       @simon will it work on traffic lights, or cars, or fire hydrants...?  You could  ... capture a market here.

       I added a percentage confidence score and dropped its threshold down from 0.9 to 0.6... it doesn't seem to know what an otter is!

       @simon Would love to see how this works on images of people walking and biking!

       @simon those are sea otters (genus enhydra) and not otters (genus lutra). Even a lot of humans get this wrong, but not "bird" wrong!

       @simon Might be the otter airforce unit though!

       @simon To be fair I reckon that’s a hard image to classify full stop. I had to zoom in and stare for a few seconds before getting it

       @simon Is it a plane? Is it a bird? No! It's Otterman.

       @simon it does crash safari mobile from time to time. Maybe the number of detected objects should also be capped? :D
