# DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest

A request that detects an animal body pose.

```
struct DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest
```

## Overview

This request generates a collection of [`AnimalBodyPoseObservation`](/documentation/Vision/AnimalBodyPoseObservation) objects that describe the position of each animal the request detects.

## Topics

### Creating a request

[`init(DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest.Revision?)`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/init(_:))

Creates an animal body pose-detection request.

### Performing a request

[`func perform(on: URL, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-80bya)

Performs the request on an image URL and produces observations.

[`func perform(on: Data, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-3f3f1)

Performs the request on image data and produces observations.

[`func perform(on: CGImage, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-qxxx)

Performs the request on a Core Graphics image and produces observations.

[`func perform(on: CVPixelBuffer, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-xspx)

Performs the request on a pixel buffer and produces observations.

[`func perform(on: CMSampleBuffer, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-3hddl)

Performs the request on a Core Media buffer and produces observations.

[`func perform(on: CIImage, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation?) async throws -> Self.Result`](/documentation/Vision/ImageProcessingRequest/perform(on:orientation:)-85ex1)

Performs the request on a Core Image image and produces observations.

### Understanding the result

[`struct AnimalBodyPoseObservation`](/documentation/Vision/AnimalBodyPoseObservation)

An observation that provides the animal body points the analysis recognizes.

### Configuring a request

[`var supportedJointNames: [AnimalBodyPoseObservation.JointName]`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/supportedJointNames)

The joint names the request supports.

[`var supportedJointsGroupNames: [AnimalBodyPoseObservation.JointsGroupName]`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/supportedJointsGroupNames)

The joint group names the request supports.

### Getting the revision

[`let revision: DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest.Revision`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/revision-swift.property)

The algorithm or implementation the request uses.

[`static let supportedRevisions: [DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest.Revision]`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/supportedRevisions)

The collection of revisions the request supports.

[`enum Revision`](/documentation/Vision/DetectAnimalBodyPoseRequest/Revision-swift.enum)

A type that describes the algorithm or implementation that the request performs.
