In this chapter, we will understand what image recognition is, how image recognition works, and how we train a machine to recognize images. Then, we will learn about all the resources that are required to perform image recognition tasks. The following are the resources that we will cover in this chapter:

• Raspberry Pi
• Raspberry Pi camera module to capture real-time images
• IR sensor
• Amazon Web Services
• Amazon's IAM service
• Amazon's command-line interface
• Amazon's S3 storage service to store the captured images
• Amazon's Rekognition web services, which we will use to perform image recognition
