Image recognition of faces for application in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) technology

The team will continue a multiple semester project using .NET MAUI, C# programming language and Visual Studio IDE to perform object recognition on images. We prefer they use the Face API service within the Microsoft Cognitive Services tool which is part of the Azure .Net API. The team will also add support for object recognition through Vertex AI. The team will continue the project started by a Fall 22 team, and will update a user interface to show information returned from the FaceAPI and set up all communication with the Face API service. The goal of the project is to allow a user to take or select an image using their tablet, then request that the faces and objects be labeled within the display on the app. The app should be shown to work on at least one operating system that can be created from the .NET MAUI framework.
