[Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Hi guys,
I'm thinking to write a software for face recognition on N900. I searched for it but I didn't find anything good or released.
The only one is: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=60859

What do you think?

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

wud seriously love to have something like that on my N900...

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

I'd like to know what users think about this...if feed-back is positive I can try to understand feasibility

already done

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Any chance you could port EYEtoy at the same time. Now that would be cool.

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

I compiled some samples of opencv, it's really easy to use with the n900, but I had some issues with real time rendering/recognition

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

It really works? Sometimes ago I read negative comments about this but perhaps bugs are fixed

However I thinked at something more complex: not only a square around face but also detail tracking. Something more closed to the video here http://personalpages.manchester.ac.u...oj_facerec.htm

and also more easy to install perhaps :)

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Why use EYETOY while I can use XBOX KINECT? I'm joking obviously
:P

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Can you point me to some documentation, if exists?

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

you should look at nicolai's work here :

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

You can start here http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/...e/Introduction

And there is a nice introduction to pattern recognition here: http://note.sonots.com/SciSoftware/haartraining.html
You should be able to compile the samples given and to directly execute it on your n900. It will require some libs, but they're all in the depos.

Why these tags to thread? I can't understand...

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

I have ported the opencv-2.2 library (mostly).. onto the n900 im trying to build an api that makes using it easy with apps on the n900 for my dissertation..

I could share that when its ready as a deb or something..

Finally im trying to build an app that would use n900 + projector and use camera to make a hand tracking drawing app :)

Ps.. its not so hard to compile though and face detection apps work out of the box!

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

I will try soon to do something, also because I have to choose a topic for an university exam...

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Why don't you write a short list of what technology/libraries/languages you'll use for the different parts of your project.

You'll see what you already know and what you'll need to learn as well others can propose you with simpler or better solutions.

Just a thought .. and ignore the tags.

Hilbert-Curve?

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

My idea is Qt + OpenCV, nothing else atm...
OpenCV is a must from university, Qt is my preference for portability...

@epitaph
Uh?

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

My idea is pretty simple,
try and get as many parts of opencv working on the n900 i can possibly and make a re-distributable .deb
then im going to make a python api that tracks colours, hands and some basic things and can dock into other applications easily and have this functionality.
Then a demo app to show it off, mentioned above to be able to draw using gestures and stuff:).

I have just about begun, ill keep everyone posted. proper dev starts after the 21st as soon as im done with my exams..!

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

Ever tried to render an image through a hilbert-curve and a Fourier-Transformation and then save the result to a database and then compare it with previous results? isn't that a face detection? Btw. I have written a hilbert-curve in php only problem is that such a fractal is only working for images with the size of power 2.

man try making the software...wish it works for login identification..

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

I was just thinking to same..:) It would be great!

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

"man try making the software...wish it works for login identification.."

Waiting for this too!

Re: [Under Consideration] Face recognizion
 

The method I describe previously should work fairly good for face-recognition or identifikation. I think u can get about 60% hits maybe less.
