Improving KeyPoints and Rotated boxes support!
We are releasing a tutorial on how to use KeyPoint transformations in our Transforms on KeyPoints with a preview below!
Note
These features are still in BETA status. The API are unlikely to change, but we may have some rough edges and we may make some slight bug fixes in future releases. Please let us know if you encounter any issue!
