iFace

iFace is a minimal application that was developed in Python in order to help your computer detect, register and recognize faces, using the connected web camera.

You are not required to go through the installation process, since this product is portable. As a result, it is not going to make any kind of changes to the Windows registry.

In addition to that, it is possible to use it on the fly on any PC you come across, by simply copying the program files to an external storage unit, such as a USB pen drive.

This program is capable of detecting people’s faces, recognizing and registering them with ease and from the options pane, it lets you enable face processing, eye detection and mirror video with just a click of the button.

In addition to that, in the main window, it is possible to view statistics, such as the time it takes to detect the face and eyes, as well as the face recognition time, number of frames per second.

You can change the enrollment count, as well as toggle the tuning mode from manual to automatic, control the gamma levels, SVM and Kernel type, while returning to the original configuration is also possible, with just a click of the button.

To conclude, iFace is a pretty simple, yet powerful piece of software, dedicated to both power and novice users. The interface is simple-to-handle, the response time is good and the computer’s performance is not going to be burdened. In our tests, it did not pop any errors, crash or hang.
