Image Preprocessing

Class: ImagePreprocessingBlockV1

Source: inference.core.workflows.core_steps.classical_cv.image_preprocessing.v1.ImagePreprocessingBlockV1

Apply a resize, flip, or rotation step to an image.

Width and height are required for resizing. Degrees are required for rotating. Flip type is required for flipping.

Type identifier

Use the following identifier in step "type" field: roboflow_core/image_preprocessing@v1to add the block as as step in your workflow.

Properties

Name	Type	Description	Refs
name	str	Enter a unique identifier for this step..	❌
task_type	str	Preprocessing task to be applied to the image..	❌
width	int	Width of the image to be resized to..	✅
height	int	Height of the image to be resized to..	✅
rotation_degrees	int	Positive value to rotate clockwise, negative value to rotate counterclockwise.	✅
flip_type	str	Type of flip to be applied to the image..	✅

The Refs column marks possibility to parametrise the property with dynamic values available in workflow runtime. See Bindings for more info.
