P: Automatic image tagging

I've read the previous replies, but I'm not sure that my situation fits any of the solutions... I'm not looking for general keywords such as car and racetrack, I'm looking for the driver's name after linking that tag to a number style or photo of his car.  Each night will have a dozen+ photos of 80+ different drivers, and there will be 80+ races per year.  Below is my original request on another forum that lead me here:

This may or may not be something that will be useful to the majority, but... looking at the "facial recognition" features gave me an idea.  As a motorsports photographer, it would save an incredible amount of time if we could get lightroom to "recognize" a particular number style or feature on a car and label it with the driver's name the way that it recognizes a face and labels it with the person's name.  When shooting 1000+ shots per night over 4-6 different divisions, it could take hours to label each car with the driver's name that would unlock the ability for customers to search for their particular car when looking to purchase photos.  IF Lightroom could do that work for us, it would be a game changer, and IMO it doesn't seem like that much of a stretch from the "facial recognition" ability.   Thanks for your consideration.

Thanks Thomas

You really should test the Excire Search Plugin (www.excire.com). It allows for automatic keywording and image similarity search based on AI. Furthermore it runs completely local on your machine, no cloud service is integrated or necessary. It will be continuously extended and improved. Rigt now, it supports more than 500 classes/scenes. New classes will come this year and user feedback and suggestiona are appreciated.

Sorry for double posting, but it seems that my above comment wasn't read.

Best regards,

I’d love to see some automatic keywording tool based on Sensei (or any other AI) in LR classic. Like the author, I like to focus on taking pictures rather than organizing them. That’s why I almost never use keywords... Here’s where the software part can shine

I think this approach is really sad. Many photographers have a workflow that is difficulty compatible with the new Lightroom version: lack of fundamental features, need for constant connection with a high bandwidth and maybe the most important, the need of control on their images. Retaining features for their « cloud » apps from the desktop app for commercial reasons might be extremely frustrating for photographers.

Adobe's artificial intelligence (Sensei) search works surprisingly well in their iOS Lightroom app. When will Sensei search be incorporated into the desktop Lightroom Classic?

If you wanne benfit from local image analysis and similarity search for lightroom, check www.excire.com

P.S.: Sorry, did not see, that John already mentioned it. Anyway, you really should test it 😉

See this previous post in the topic:

In my opinion, Adobe Sensei is one of the best new features and I'd love to use it on my  Lightroom Classic CC library.

Is there any technical limitations not to have it on this version? 

Thanks!
