AI-102 Plan and manage an Azure AI solution Practice Question

You are planning to use Azure AI Vision to analyze images for a retail inventory management application. The solution must detect products on shelves and read expiration dates. Which two Azure AI Vision capabilities should you use?

⚠ Common exam trap

Many exam-takers confuse Image Captioning with Object Detection, assuming a descriptive caption could identify products, or overlook OCR because they think expiration dates are purely numeric and can be handled by simpler methods, but Azure AI Vision's OCR is specifically designed for text extraction from images.
