The IoT Visual Alerts app runs in a continuous loop, switching between four different states as appropriate:
43
45
44
46
***No Model**: A no-op state. The app will continually sleep for one second and check the camera.
45
-
***Capturing Training Images**: In this state, the app captures a picture and uploads it as a training image to the target Custom Vision project. The app then sleeps for 500 ms and repeats the procedure until the set maximum number of images are captured. Then it starts the training of the Custom Vision model.

The app then sleeps for 500 ms and repeats the operation until the set target number of images are captured. Then it triggers the training of the Custom Vision model.

***Waiting For Trained Model**: In this state, the app calls the Custom Vision API every second to check whether the target project contains a trained iteration. When it finds one, it downloads the corresponding ONNX model to a local file and switches to the **Scoring** state.

***Scoring**: In this state, the app uses Windows ML to evaluate a single frame from the camera against the exported ONNX model. The resulting image classification is displayed on the screen and sent as a message to the IoT Hub. The app then sleeps for one second before scoring a new frame.

* If you're running the app on an IoT device, call the `EnterLearningMode` method on the device through the IoT Hub. You can call it through the device entry in the IoT Hub menu in Azure, or with a tool such as [IoT Hub Device Explorer](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-csharp/tree/master/tools/DeviceExplorer).

When the app enters the **Capturing Training Images** state, it will capture about two images every second until it's reached the target number of images. By default, this is 30 images, but you can set this parameter by passing the desired number as an argument to the `EnterLearningMode` IoT Hub method.

While the app is capturing images, you must expose the camera to the types of visual states that you want to detect (for example, an empty room, a room with

people, an empty desk, a desk with a toy truck, and so on).

Once the app has finished capturing images, it will upload them and then switch to the **Waiting For Trained Model** state. At this point, you need to go to the [Custom Vision portal](https://www.customvision.ai/) and build a model based on the new training images. The following animation shows an example of this process.

1. Sign in to the [Custom Vision portal](http://customvision.ai).

1. Find your target project, which should have all the training images that the app uploaded.
103
-
1. For each visual state that you want to identify, select the appropriate images and manually apply a tag.
104
-
* For example, if your goal is to distinguish between an empty room and a room with people in it, we recommend tagging five or more images with people as a new class (**People**, for instance), and tagging five or more images without people as the **Negative** tag. This will help the model differentiate between the two states.

For each captured image, the app will display the top tag on the screen. If it doesn't recognize the visual state, it will display **No Matches**). The app also sends these messages to the IoT Hub as messages, and if there is a class being detected, the message will include the label, the confidence score, and a property called `detectedClassAlert`, which can be used from IoT Hub clients interested in doing fast message routing based on properties.

In addition, the sample uses a [Sense HAT library](https://github.com/emmellsoft/RPi.SenseHat) to detect when it's running on a Raspberry Pi with a Sense HAT unit, so it can use it as an output display by setting all display lights to red whenever it detects a class and blank when it doesn't detect anything.
