Os modelos do Gemini foram desenvolvidos para serem multimodais desde o início, permitindo uma ampla variedade de tarefas de processamento de imagens e visão computacional, incluindo, entre outras, legendagem de imagens, classificação e Resposta visual a perguntas, sem precisar treinar modelos especializados de ML.
Além das funcionalidades multimodais gerais, os modelos do Gemini oferecem maior precisão para casos de uso específicos, como detecção de objetos e segmentação, por meio de treinamento adicional.
Enviar imagens para o Gemini
É possível fornecer imagens como entrada para o Gemini usando vários métodos:
- Transmitir imagem usando URL: ideal para imagens acessíveis publicamente.
- Transmissão de dados de imagem inline: para dados de imagem codificados em base64.
- Fazer upload de imagens usando a API File: recomendado para arquivos maiores ou para reutilizar imagens em várias solicitações.
Transmitir imagem usando URL
É possível fazer upload de uma imagem usando a API Files e transmiti-la na solicitação:
Python
from google import genai
client = genai.Client()
uploaded_file = client.files.upload(file="path/to/organ.jpg")
interaction = client.interactions.create(
model="gemini-3.8-flash",

{"type": "text", "text": "Caption this image."},
{
"type": "image",
"uri": uploaded_file.uri,
"mime_type": uploaded_file.mime_type
}
]

print(interaction.output_text)

Detecção de objetos
Os modelos são treinados para detectar objetos em uma imagem e receber as coordenadas da caixa delimitadora. As coordenadas, relativas às dimensões da imagem, são dimensionadas para [0, 1000]. É preciso reduzir a escala dessas coordenadas com base no tamanho da imagem original.

Segmentação
Os modelos do Gemini não apenas detectam itens, mas também os segmentam e fornecem as máscaras de contorno.
O modelo prevê uma lista JSON, em que cada item representa uma máscara de segmentação. Cada item tem uma caixa delimitadora ("box_2d") no formato [ymin, xmin, ymax, xmax] com coordenadas normalizadas entre 0 e 1.000, um rótulo ("label") que identifica o objeto e, por fim, a máscara de segmentação dentro da caixa delimitadora como um polígono de coordenadas [x, y] normalizadas para 0 a 1.000.

Formatos de imagem compatíveis
O Gemini é compatível com os seguintes tipos MIME de formato de imagem:
- PNG -
image/png - JPEG -
image/jpeg - WEBP -
image/webp - HEIC -
image/heic - HEIF -
image/heif
Para saber mais sobre outros métodos de entrada de arquivos, consulte o guia Métodos de entrada de arquivos.
Recursos
Todas as versões do modelo do Gemini são multimodais e podem ser usadas em uma ampla variedade de tarefas de processamento de imagens e visão computacional, incluindo, mas não se limitando a, legendagem de imagens, perguntas e respostas visuais, classificação de imagens, detecção de objeto e segmentação.
O Gemini pode reduzir a necessidade de usar modelos especializados de ML, dependendo dos seus requisitos de qualidade e desempenho.
As versões mais recentes do modelo são treinadas especificamente para melhorar a acurácia de tarefas especializadas, além de recursos genéricos, como detecção de objetos e segmentação aprimoradas.
Limitações e principais informações técnicas
Limite de arquivos
Os modelos do Gemini aceitam no máximo 3.600 arquivos de imagem por solicitação.
Cálculo de tokens
- 258 tokens se as duas dimensões forem menores ou iguais a 384 pixels. Imagens maiores são divididas em blocos de 768 x 768 pixels, cada um custando 258 tokens.
Uma fórmula aproximada para calcular o número de blocos é a seguinte:
- Calcule o tamanho da unidade de corte, que é aproximadamente:
floor(min(width, height)/ 1,5. - Divida cada dimensão pelo tamanho da unidade de corte e multiplique para obter o número de blocos.
Por exemplo, uma imagem de dimensões 960 x 540 teria um tamanho de unidade de corte de 360. Divida cada dimensão por 360. O número de blocos é 3 * 2 = 6.
Resolução de mídia
O Gemini 3 apresenta controle granular sobre o processamento de visão multimodal com o parâmetro
media_resolution. O parâmetro media_resolution determina o número máximo de tokens alocados por imagem de entrada ou frame de vídeo.
Resoluções mais altas melhoram a capacidade do modelo de ler textos pequenos ou identificar detalhes pequenos, mas aumentam o uso de tokens e a latência.
Dicas e práticas recomendadas
- Verifique se as imagens estão giradas corretamente.
- Use imagens nítidas e sem desfoque.
- Ao usar uma única imagem com texto, coloque o comando de texto antes da imagem na matriz
input.
A seguir
Este guia mostra como fazer upload de arquivos de imagem e gerar saídas de texto com base em entradas de imagem. Para saber mais, consulte os seguintes recursos:
- API Files: saiba mais sobre como enviar e gerenciar arquivos para uso com o Gemini.
- Instruções do sistema: Com elas, é possível orientar o comportamento do modelo com base nas suas necessidades e casos de uso específicos.
- Estratégias de comandos de arquivo: a API Gemini aceita comandos com dados de texto, imagem, áudio e vídeo, também conhecidas como comandos multimodais.
- Orientações de segurança: às vezes, os modelos de IA generativa produzem resultados inesperados, como imprecisos, tendenciosos ou ofensivos. O pós-processamento e a avaliação humana são essenciais para limitar o risco de danos causados por essas saídas.
