Pretrained computer vision classifier

Identify open or closed car doors with one API call.

A pretrained open or closed car doors classifier that sorts an image into one of 2 categories. Use the open or closed car doors API immediately, no training required, then adapt it to your own data when you need more.

Call the open or closed car doors API

Once you've added this classifier to your console, you get your own copy of it behind your own endpoint. Invoke it with any HTTP client:

curl

curl -X POST "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NYCKEL_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"data": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"}'

Python

import requests

# Get an access token: https://www.nyckel.com/docs/api/overview/authentication/
token = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

response = requests.post(
    "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + token},
    json={"data": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"},
)
print(response.json())

Example response

{
  "labelName": "Open Door",
  "labelId": "label_...",
  "confidence": 0.92
}

Under the hood

Model type
Nyckel-trained

Trained on a Nyckel-curated dataset covering 2 open or closed car doors categories, served on Nyckel's own infrastructure — your image stays on Nyckel.

Input
Image

Send an image URL or file to the invoke endpoint; the response is a label with a confidence score.

Make it yours
Adaptable

Clone it, then correct predictions and add your own samples in the console — Nyckel retrains automatically, turning this into a custom model tuned to your data.

More than a demo: this page is one of thousands of pretrained functions on Nyckel, an ML classification platform. You can invoke classifiers by API, review predictions, correct labels, collect samples from production traffic, and promote any pretrained function to a private custom model — without changing your integration.

Where teams use open or closed car doors classification

Car Rental Check-In Assessment

The open or closed car doors identifier can automatically detect whether a returned rental car's doors are left open or not, eliminating a manual check-up process and speeding up the check-in procedure for car rental companies.

Autonomous Car Function

Driverless cars can utilize this function to check whether all the doors are closed before starting to drive for the security and safety of the passengers on board.

Car Manufacturing Quality Control

The image classification function can be integrated into the production line automated systems, where it can help check that all car doors are properly shut in the final inspection step, reducing manual supervision.

Car Dealership Security

The system can be installed at car dealerships to alert security personnel to any open car doors after business hours, minimizing the risk of theft or damage.

Public Transport Safety

Bus and train companies can use this technological function to ensure all passenger doors are closed before the vehicle departs, thus enhancing safety measures.

Vehicle Breakdown Service

This tool can assist service personnel to detect if a car door is open after an accident or breakdown on remote monitoring screens, accelerating response time for roadside assistance.

Parking Lot Management

Parking lot operators can install systems using this function to identify any vehicles with open doors. Staff can then be alerted to close them, reducing potential thefts and ensuring customer satisfaction.

Common questions

What's the difference between a zero-shot and a Nyckel-trained classifier?

A zero-shot classifier uses a large foundation model's general knowledge to pick between your labels — no task-specific training, so new or edited labels work immediately. A Nyckel-trained classifier has been trained on labeled examples and runs on Nyckel's own infrastructure, which typically makes it faster, cheaper per call, and more accurate on data that resembles its training set. The "Under the hood" section on this page shows which kind this classifier is, and any classifier can be adapted into a trained one by adding your own examples.

How do I know whether this will work for my application?

Honestly: we can't know in advance — it depends on your data stream and how closely it resembles what this classifier has seen. The reliable way to find out is to measure it on your own data: start invoking the classifier with real traffic, or upload and annotate a set of images in the console — make sure they look like your production data, not idealized examples. Nyckel's evaluation metrics then show you exactly how it performs on that data before you rely on it.

What happens when it makes a mistake?

No classifier is perfect, so Nyckel is built around the correction loop: invokes can be captured for review, you confirm or correct predictions in the console, and corrections become training data. Over time the model adapts to your data distribution — accuracy on your traffic improves with use rather than staying fixed.

Do I need training data to get started?

No. This open or closed car doors classifier works out of the box — clone it into your console and you'll have your own API endpoint in under a minute. Training data only enters the picture when you want to adapt it: your corrected predictions and uploaded samples improve the model, and you can also edit the label set to match your needs.

What does it cost to try?

Trying the classifier on this page is free with no signup. Cloning it requires a free account, and the free tier covers your first API calls each month — see nyckel.com/pricing for current limits and paid tiers.

Ready to classify open or closed car doors at scale?

Add this pretrained classifier to your Nyckel console — you'll get a live API endpoint in under a minute, and a path to a custom model when you need one.
