Facial Recognition - customize your mirror for every user!

@reaper81 I think you also need to include the class default as the facial recognition app spends most of its time logged out.

the default-class works fine but i whould like to show modules only if a person is in the room. thats why the class “everyone” exist. Do you use it? does it work?

j.e.f.f

@reaper81 yeah in that case it should work for what you’re trying to do. If it isn’t then I don’t know why.

You could also try using a motion sensor to turn the screen on and off. Essentially when someone walks up to the screen it shows modules, and after a specified time out of no motion sensed, if turns itself back off.

So i repeat my question: does anybody use the “everyone”-class and it work?

I am struggling to get modules using a name class to work. Still waiting for an answer as well

Hi there, maybe someone is able to help me out.
I am trying to run capture.py but getting this Error

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "capture.py", line 18, in 
      import lib.capture as capture

I am also facing the same issue. Any effort to resolve it will be appreciated.

Got another problem. My picam is not able to open. I am using opencv 3.3.

Remember to set the name list environment variable FACE_USERS
Using default FACE_ALGORITM: 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "facerecognition.py", line 30, in 
camera = config.get_camera(preview)
File "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/lib/config.py", line 101, in get_camera
return webcam.OpenCVCapture(device_id=0)
File "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/lib/webcam.py", line 29, in __init__
self._camera.open()
TypeError: Required argument 'device' (pos 1) not found

any suggestions?
