@sdetweil it is running quite well … just that I’m using the hog method n sometimes it fails to recognise… has anyone got any success with CNN, I know it’s power hungry n pi might not be able to handle it… but surprise me…😛

I too am looking for facial recognition module and its hard to keep up with versions and such especially when you are not a developer or coder. But, I’m curious what do you have for hardware and OS and what cv4 version did you follow? When I look through the install notes it looks like CV versions have changed along with OS version (now buster) and the words and links don’t equal the versions .

I have buster on a pi 4 (4g) I have a picam 2.0 and or a logitech c930 usb webcam I can use… just curious what you followed and have?

@majik655 things are constantly changing. I’ve only installed the MMM-face-reco-dnn on my Pi4

it’s a lot of work

Yeah iv’e been through the process and back with the very beginning of face recog I was able to get it done but that was a long time ago… it seems it has come a long way.

I guess I get confused when it comes to the dataset… can I just put my own pictures from say my phone in there? Or do I have to somehow figure out how to take pictures and such with the camera on the pi?

The links in the instructions say “OpenCV 4.1.2 quick installation (wthout compliation) for Raspbian Buster”
Bu takes you to a page that is 4.3… for the opencv part is that the only part that is needed is this:
https://github.com/cyysky/OpenCV-Raspberry-Pi-4-Package-for-Python

Anyway made a backup of my mirror…now lets see if I can destroy it trying to get this working.
Thank you for your replies!
