- **BLIP** for image captioning
|
16 |
-
- **gTTS** (Google Text-to-Speech) for audio generation
|
17 |
-
- **Gradio** for the user interface and deployment on Hugging Face Spaces

-
Locally:
|
65 |
-
|
66 |
-
python object_detection.py
|
67 |
-
|
68 |
-
Then visit: http://127.0.0.1:7860 in your browser.
|

-
|
79 |
-
gr.Interface(...).launch(server_name="0.0.0.0", server_port=7860, debug=True)
