Start Using the “Fast Positioning” Module

Please click here to download an image dataset of connectors. In this section, we will use a Fast Positioning module and train a model to rotate the connectors in the images to a specified orientation.

  1. Create a new project and add the fast positioning module

    Click on New Project in the interface, name the project, and select a directory to save the project. Click on icon_create in the upper right corner of the Modules panel and add the Fast Positioning module.
