That's pretty cool, and best of luck!

Lowering the barrier to entry for many of these object recognition tasks makes so many applications possible. Many years ago (before DL was a thing), I was approached to make a phone app that recognized coins; doing it with classical computer vision, with rotation invariance and potential overlaps between the coins was a rather big task and far too expensive for that customer. Nowadays it's way easier with machine learning, and SDKs such as yours seem to make that even easier.
