The Next-Generation Microsoft Kinect: Inching Ever Closer To Perfect?

Face Detection, Face Recognition, Gesture Control /

Last November, rumors began circulating in cyberspace regarding the next-generation Microsoft Kinect peripheral…that it would be, for example, accurate enough to read the lips of people sitting in front of it, along with delivering improved motion tracking and voice recognition (the latter by virtue of the camera peripheral's integrated microphone array), and being "able to […]

From Lipstick to Security: Facial Recognition Without High-Resolution Complexity

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Speaking of face-related embedded vision topics…a month back, I told you how smartphone-based software was being used to make makeup suggestions. And ten months ago (for example), I told you about revolutionary techniques being employed to improve face recognition accuracy. Do you think I can link these two themes? Of course I can…with a little

Face Detection For Obscenity Prevention

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Another day, another facial recognition-fueled controversy…although strictly speaking, this one involves less-complex face detection, not age, race, gender or specific-identity recognition…at least not yet, that is. The more "wired" among you may recall a short-lived (but technically still alive) Internet craze called Chatroulette. Via the aptly-named website, you were randomly connected with someone else on

RecognizeMe: Underwhelming Facial Recognition, As Least Initially

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Back in early April, I mentioned a facial recognition program called RecognizeMe, available for "jailbroken" Apple iOS-based hardware. I went ahead and dropped $2.99 on the program, then installed it on my fourth-generation iPod touch and two iPhone 4s (AT&T and Verizon); my first-generation iPad doesn't have a front-facing camera and is therefore not a

SceneTap: A Face Detection Privacy Flap

Face Detection, Face Recognition, Privacy /

Back in September of last year, I introduced you to SceneTap, a service that uses webcams to provide a dynamically updated count of how many people are currently in a bar, restaurant, etc…along with estimates of male-to-female and age ratios, thereby implementing not only human face detection but also rudimentary face recognition (gender and age,

Makeup Selection: An Embedded Vision-Based Determination

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

As I've mentioned before (several times, in fact, along with publishing a demonstration video), various embedded vision-based systems are now appearing that assist you in selecting which clothing (and what sizes of that clothing) you should purchase. Thanks to Engadget, I'm able to now tell you that Fujitsu has taken fashion to the next level.

Improve Perceptual Video Quality: Skin-Tone Macroblock Detection

Algorithms, Articles, Face Detection, Face Recognition, Technical Articles, Texas Instruments /

By Paula Carrillo, Akira Osamoto, and Adithya K. Banninthaya Texas Instruments Accurate skin-tone reproduction is important in conventional still and video photography applications, but it's also critical in some embedded vision implementations; for accurate facial detection and recognition, for example. And intermediary lossy compression between the camera and processing circuitry is common in configurations that
