Additional information detected for the block.
bounding_boxgoogle.cloud.vision_v1.types.BoundingPoly
The bounding box for the block. The vertices are in the order of top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left. When a rotation of the bounding box is detected the rotation is represented as around the top-left corner as defined when the text is read in the 'natural' orientation. For example: - when the text is horizontal it might look like: :: 0----1 | | 3----2 - when it's rotated 180 degrees around the top-left corner it becomes: :: 2----3 | | 1----0 and the vertex order will still be (0, 1, 2, 3).
