Facial Recognition - customize your mirror for every user!

@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 inpersonen = ["sasi"]
my config.js file as below
{ module: 'MMM-Facial-Recognition', position: 'top_left', config: { // 1=LBPH | 2=Fisher | 3=Eigen recognitionAlgorithm: 1, // Threshold for the confidence of a recognized face before it's considered a // positive match. Confidence values below this threshold will be considered // 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, fisherThreshold: 250, eigenThreshold: 3000, // force the use of a usb webcam on raspberry pi (on other platforms this is always true automatically) useUSBCam: false, // Path to your training xml trainingFile: 'modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml', // recognition intervall in seconds (smaller number = faster but CPU intens!) interval: 2, // Logout delay after last recognition so that a user does not get instantly logged out if he turns away from the mirror for a few seconds logoutDelay: 15, // Array with usernames (copy and paste from training script) users: ['sasi'], //Module set used for strangers and if no user is detected defaultClass: "default", //Set of modules which should be shown for every user forAllClass: "for_all" } }, { module: 'clock', position: 'top_left', //Set your classes here seperated by a space. //Shown for all users classes: 'for_all' },
when i run pm2 start mm i am struck at below message
can someone help me on this error

Potentially stupid question here, apologies in advance if I’ve missed something obvious. I have the mirror and the face recognition working (Yay!) but when it’s running, on the left side of the screen it shows “MMM-Facial-Recognition” and module-10-mmm-facial-recognition underneath. I though about removing the position tag, but that’s there in the readme version so did not. How do I remove the text showing the running facial recognition module?
Thanks!Zach -

yes , i copied the training file from //MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facetrainer
to // Path to your training xml
trainingFile: ‘modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml’, -
Hello, First of all thanks a lot for building this great module!
I am trying to get it to work, I’ve installed the module and it looks like It doens’t start:
Output when I start the NPM:
`pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start magicmirror@2.0.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror electron js/electron.js Loading config ... Loading module helpers ... Initializing new module helper ... Initializing new module helper ... All module helpers loaded. Starting server op port 8080 ... Server started ... Connecting socket for: camera camera helper started ... Connecting socket for: MMM-Facial-Recognition Staring module helper: MMM-Facial-Recognition Sockets connected & modules started ... Launching application. initializing nodemailer ` It looks like its installed fine, because of the starting module helper: MMM-Facial-Recognition. But I am not getting the normal output like I see by other people: [MMM-Facial-Recognition] Facerecognition started... [MMM-Facial-Recognition] Loading training data... My Config.json file: `/* Magic Mirror Config Sample * By Tom & Joey MIT Licensed. */ var config = { port: 8080, language: 'nl', timeFormat: 24, units: 'metric', modules: [ { module: 'camera', position: 'top_center', config: { selfieInterval: 3, // Time interval in seconds before the photo will be taken. emailConfig: { service: 'Hotmail', // Email provider to use to send email with a photo. auth: { user: '<s1084836@hotmail.com>', // Your email account pass: '<test12345>' // Your password for email account } } } }, { module: 'MMM-Facial-Recognition', position: 'top_left', config: { // 1=LBPH | 2=Fisher | 3=Eigen recognitionAlgorithm: 1, // Threshold for the confidence of a recognized face before it's considered a // positive match.

Is there anything I’m doing wrong ? :D

@paviro thanks creating such a cool module!
I have followed the instructions to capture the training images and have successfully created a training.xml file :)When I add the MMM-Facial-Recognition module to my Magic Mirror config.js file I get “WARNING! Could not validate config file. Please correct syntax errors. Starting with default configuration” in the terminal and the Magic Mirror shows an error page saying config.js not found.
My config.js is:
var config = { port: 8080, language: 'en', timeFormat: 12, units: 'metric', modules: [ //------------------------------------------------- { module: 'clock', position: 'top_left' classes: 'everyone' }, //------------------------------------------------- { module: 'compliments', position: 'lower_third' classes: 'andy' }, //------------------------------------------------- { module: 'MMM-Facial-Recognition', config: { recognitionAlgorithm: 1, lbphThreshold: 50, fisherThreshold: 250, eigenThreshold: 3000, useUSBCam: false, trainingFile: '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml', interval: 3, logoutDelay: 15, users: ['andy'], defaultClass: "default", everyoneClass: "everyone" } }, //------------------------------------------------- ] }; /*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/ if (typeof module !== 'undefined') {module.exports = config;}
If I comment out " classes: ‘everyone’ " and " classes: ‘andy’ " in the other modules the MagicMirror loads with no errors but blank black screen.
Any ideas what’s causing this ?
Thanks -
@awarrington It seems like you’ve missed the comma’s at the end of the line where the position is for the clock and compliments module here:
{ module: 'clock', position: 'top_left', <-- classes: 'everyone' },

@rvdgeer Thank you! All works perfectly now
