Image Processing in the Browser

Talkat bit summit 2025 · on Thursday, 2025-09-04· [web-platform, machine-learning]

Shows how to run TensorFlow.js models entirely in the browser using CPU, WebGL or WebGPU backends and Web Neural Network support, loading Coco SSD from npm and running detection on a video element at ~100 fps in demos. Builds a camera-based detector that flags a person and dog co-present for 5–10s to trigger alerts, with live examples returning class scores (laptop 72–99%, person ~80%). Notes WebGPU can be ~30x faster than CPU, models are retrainable on-device, and this approach preserves privacy and low latency.
