        It checks every second or so but you can configure the interval.You can buy longer cables for the Pi cam :)

        We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

              Very nice module.
              However I keep ruinning into the same error when I try capture.py to convert them to pgm files:
              Could not detect single face!

              I’ve taken ‘selfies’ with different camera’s in different lighting conditions, but not even one is good enough to convert into a pgm file…
              Can you please give me some clues on what conditions my pictures have to meet?
              Am I doing something wrong?
              All help and advice appreciated!

                @rajbadri Have you added the classes: (with a value) to all the other modules in the config.js? If you get a plain black screen without errors it might be that no modules were loaded.

                  @rvdgeer OK, replying to my own post for future reference:

                  I got it working by doing the following:

                  • cropped the pictures to only show my face;
                  • copied the cropped pictures and transformed them to greyscale;
                  • copied the grey pictures and upped the contact;
                  • moved all pictures (originals and copies) to a direct sub folder of the facetrainer folder;
                  • started the capture.py, pressed 2, entered my name, entered the name of the sub folder (only the sub folder, not the entire path) and waited.

                  This way I got it to recognize about 10 of the pictures…
                  Not bad!

                  Getting it to recognize me is still not easy, but that because of the lighting conditions in my ManCave where I’m putting it together.

                      @shashank If you run the facetrainer (capture.py and train.py) first, you should know what to enter here…

                        @rvdgeer hi,

                        After running capture.py a folder created by name ‘sasi’ in the /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facetrainer/training_data

                        then by running train.py a training.xml created in the path
                        /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facetrainer

                        and also in /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facerecognition_tester/lib i mentioned name in personen = ["sasi"]

                        my config.js file as below

                        {

                                // a positive match because the lower the confidence value, or distance, the
                                // more confident the algorithm is that the face was correctly detected.
                                lbphThreshold: 50,
