      @YourhighnessLeender Webcam is fine. If it worked in training it will work in the module.

        @nuckinfutz that is whats so strange. It does work in training but not in the module. Did a new install of the module and new training.xml but no luck. Very very wierd.

        Maybe I should buy a picam and try with that.

          @benkej question: did you change any of the capture settings in config.js? Like threshold etc? I was thinking of trying a different algorithm, did you try that?

            @YourhighnessLeender only for trial but I changed everything back to the default. I’m using raspberry pi 3 model b, here is part of my config:

            {
                module: 'MMM-Facial-Recognition',
                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: true,
                    // Path to your training xml
                    trainingFile: 'modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml',
                    // recognition intervall in seconds (smaller number = faster but CPU intens!)
                    interval: 3,
                    // 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: ["Jani"],
                    //Module set used for strangers and if no user is detected
                    defaultClass: "default",
                    //Set of modules which should be shown for every user
                    everyoneClass: "everyone"
                }
            }
            

            and part of console log:

            [MMM-Facial-Recognition] Facerecognition started...
            [MMM-Facial-Recognition] Loading training data...

            @YourhighnessLeender and the output of train.py:

            Which algorithm do you want to use?
            [1] LBPHF (recommended)
            [2] Fisherfaces

            --------------------
            
            Read 3 positive images and 400 negative images.
            
            3 images from subject Jani

            Training data saved to training.xml
            
            Please add or update (if you added new people not just new images) ['Jani'] inside config.js (mirror module) or config.py (model tester). You can change the names to whatever you want, just keep the same order and you'll be fine.
            Please add 1 as your choosen algorithm inside config.js (mirror module) or config.py (model tester).

                    @PointPubMedia Well sure but you could also write your own module listening for the notifications from my module :)

                    @bhepler said in Facial Recognition - customize your mirror for every user!:

                    @YourhighnessLeender Check your capitalization. Your training script output was ‘Johannes’ and your config.js has ‘johannes’.

                    This does not make any difference :)

                    You should definitely use more than 3 pictures! I use around 200 :D

                      @paviro 200 pictures - aha! Maybe my 13 isnt enough. I can’t use the capture script since i’m on webcam so I took em with my phone and transferred them to the pi. I’ll add more and cross my fingers.

                        Well that could also be a cause. You should use the same camera for best results!
                        Why shouldn’t you be able to use a webcam with the capture script? I never used it with anything else to be honest :D
