Face Recognition

This is a python script for Face Recognition with multiporocessing

Usage

1. Install face_recognition python package

   pip3 install -U face_recognition

2. git clone this repo

   git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/shengyang998/pi_face

3. Put your white list photos to ./WhiteList/ and:

   python3 main.py

Prerequisites

• A Computer
• A Camera
• The appropriate Driver of the Camera
  • uv4l guide for Raspberry pi
• Python3.x
• OpenCV
• face_recognition
  • for face_recognition, you need dlib installed on your system if the recognition takes too much time, you should consider compile dlib by yourself
• dlib
  • The installation guide of dlib

Tools for checking pipeline size on your system:

The *nix platform use pipeline to exchange information in different processes. However, pipeline should not use for exchanging large file, so if your resolution so high that could cause a performance issue, you may want to change the code from passing frame to pipeline to passing multiprocessing.Array to pipeline (which I haven't implemented). To check your pipeline size:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/shengyang998/pi_face
/bin/bash -c 'for p in {0..18}; do ./test_pipe_size.sh $((2 ** $p)) 0.5; done'
