Hi I am trying to use Lightship’s object detection for a game I’m making. We are trying to detect either a tree (or any form of wooden object) or any stone object. I see that there’s no object that matches those descriptions in the list of possible objects but is there any work around or any object that is there that would be close enough to what I what. I know that Christmas Tree is a detectable object but would that work for any type of tree?

Hello! At the moment, object detection can only identify the items listed [here](https://lightship.dev/docs/ardk/features/object_detection/#object-detection-categories). Alternatively, you could try using [semantics](https://lightship.dev/docs/ardk/features/semantics/) instead, which identifies different channels. Some channels include ground, foliage, and buildings. There are also experimental channels, such as the tree trunk experimental channel. Due to these channels being experimental, they are not recommended for production-level applications.
