Any limits for source image size with Google Mobile Vision for iOS?

Question

I have some issue while using GoogleMobileVision for iOS.

With UIImagePickerController set like this

UIImagePickerController* picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc]init];
picker.delegate = self;

picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
picker.cameraDevice = UIImagePickerControllerCameraDeviceFront;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:^
{
    self.faceImageView.layer.sublayers = nil; // drawing and re-drawing some lines...
}];

And detector:

[super viewDidLoad];
NSDictionary* options = @{
                          GMVDetectorFaceLandmarkType : @(GMVDetectorFaceLandmarkAll),
                          GMVDetectorFaceClassificationType : @(GMVDetectorFaceClassificationAll),
                          GMVDetectorFaceTrackingEnabled : @(NO),
                          //GMVDetectorFaceMode : @(GMVDetectorFaceAccurateMode) // Accurate mode detects face, but with wrong orientation; Fast mode can't detect faces!
                          };

self.faceDetector = [GMVDetector detectorOfType:GMVDetectorTypeFace options:options];

But, if using:picker.allowsEditing = YES; everything works perfectly!

Question: is reason in image sizes? picker.allowsEditing = YES; returns image of size 750x750 on iPhone 6s and 1932x2576 for default value of picker.allowsEditing

Answer 1

Just normalise the image's orientation by using this

func imageByNormalizingOrientation() -> UIImage {
    if imageOrientation == .up {
        return self
    }
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, scale)
    draw(in: CGRect(origin: CGPoint.zero, size: size))
    let normalizedImage: UIImage? = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
    return normalizedImage!
}

and then send the output image to features(in:, options:).
